Question 17

Q9) Five square flower beds each of sides 1 m are dug on a piece of land 5 m long and 4 m wide. What is the area of the remaining part of the land?

Solution

Transcript

Solution:

Side of square bed = 1 m

Area of square bed = side x side = 1 m x 1 m = 1 m.sq

\therefore Area of 5 square beds = 1 x 5 = 5 m.sq

Now, Length of land = 5 m and breadth of land = 4 m

\therefore Area of land = length x breadth = 5 m x 4 m = 20 m.sq
