Question

The area of rectangle ia 600 square metres if the length of the rectangle is 40 meters ,then breadth of rectangle is

Answer 1

Answer:

Breadth of rectangle=Area/length

=600/40

15m

Answer 2

Answer :-

• The breadth of the rectangle = 15 m.

Given :-

• The area of a rectangle is 600 m².
• The length of the rectangle is 40 m.

To find :-

• The breadth of the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation :-

Detailed explanation of the solution :-

How to solve?

The question has given us the area and length of the rectangle. We have to find it's breadth. For this, we are going to use the formula required for finding the area of a rectangle.

Calculations :-

We know that :-

Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth.

Let's take the breadth as b.

Here,

Length = 40 m.

Area = 600 m².

So it's clear that :-

$\sf600 = 40 \times b$

Multiplying 40 by b,

$\sf600 = 40b$

Transposing 40 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign,

$\sf\dfrac{60 \!\!\!\not0}{4\!\!\! \not0} = b$

Cutting off the zeroes,

$\sf \dfrac{ \not6 \!\!\!\not0}{\not4} = b$

Reducing the numbers,

$\sf15 = b$

$\sf b = 15$

The value of b is 15.

So, the breadth of the rectangle = 15 m.
