A rectangle has length 40 cm and breadth 20 cm. How many squares with side 10cm can be formed from it with formula
Answers
Given:
length of the rectangle = 40cm
breadth of the rectangle = 20cm
Area of the rectangle = length × breadth
= 40cm × 20cm
= 800cm²
Side of square = 10cm
=> Area of square = 10cm × 10cm = 100cm²
Number of squares = Area of rectangle/ Area of square
=> 800cm²/ 100cm²
=> 8 squares
Answer: Length of rectangle= L×B
= 40×20
= 800 square cm
Sides of a square = 10cm
Area of square = Side×Side
= 10×10
=100 square cm
Squares that can be formed from rectangle
=Area of rectangle÷ Area of square
=800÷100
= 8
Therefore, 8 squares can be formed by the rectangle having length 40 cm and Breadth 20 cm
