If the length of a plot is 8 m more than the width and both are in the ratio of 5:3 then calculate the width of the plot.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the breath be “x”
Length = x + 8
therefore
Length : Breath :: 5 : 3
Now convert the ratio in a fractional form
(x+8)/x = 5/3
3(x+8)=5(x). .( cross multiply)
3x+24=5x
24=5x-3x
24=2x
x=12
Now,
Breath = 12 m
Length = 20 m

Question :-
If the length of a plot is 8 m more than the width and both are in the ratio of 5 : 3 then calculate the width of the plot.
Answer : -
width = 12m
Step by Step answer ,
This question deals with the concepts of the formulae of rectangle and the ratio and proportion ,
Let the Width be “x”
According to the Question ,
Length of plot = x + 8
Since, Length : Width : : 5 : 3
Now convert the ratio in a fractional form
(x+8)/x = 5/3
Now cross multiply,
3 (x + 8) = 5x
3x + 24 = 5x
24 = 5x - 3x
24 = 2x
x = 12
