Question

the area of the four walls in a room is 120 m2 the length of twice the breadth .if the height of the room is 4 m find the area of the floor

Answer 1

Hope this may help you

Answer 2

Given:-

• Area of four walls of a room is 120m².
• The length is twice the breadth.
• Height of the room is 4m.

⠀

To find:-

• Breadth of the room.

⠀

Solution:-

Let the breadth of the room be b.

Then,

Length of the room will be 2b.

⠀

Note:- Area of four walls means the lateral surface area of the room.

⠀

★ Therefore, we will use the formula of lateral surface area of cuboid.

⠀

$\boxed{\tt{\bigstar{LSA_{(Cuboid)} = 2(l + b) \times h{\bigstar}}}}$

★LSA

(Cuboid)

=2(l+b)×h★

⠀

Here

• l = length
• b = breadth
• h = height

⠀

$\tt:\implies\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {LSA = 120}:$

⠀

$\tt:\implies\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {2(l + b) \times h = 120}:$

⠀

$\tt:\implies\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {2(2b + b) \times 4 = 120}$

⠀

$\tt:\implies\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {2(3b) = \dfrac{120}{4}}$

⠀

$\tt:\implies\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {6b = 30}:⟹6b=30$

⠀

$\tt:\implies\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {b = \dfrac{30}{6}}$

⠀

$\bf:\implies\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {b = 5}:⟹b=5$

⠀

Hence,

The breadth of the wall is 5m.
