The cost of levelling a rectangular garden at rupees 3.50 square metre is 8400 its length and breadth are in the ratio 3 ratio 2 find the perimeter of the garden
Answers
Answer:
Perimeter of the rectangular garden is 200.0 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
= > Cost of levelling = area to be levelled x rate of levelling
= > ₹8400 = area to be levelled x ₹3.50 / m^2
= > ( ₹8400 ) / ( ₹3.50 ) m^2 = area to be levelled
= > 2400.00 m^2 = area to be levelled
Since the whole rectangular garden is to be levelled, area to be levelled = area of rectangular garden = 2400.00 m^2
Given,
Length : Breadth = 3 : 2
= > Length = ( 3 / 2 ) breadth
From the properties of rectangular structures( 2D ) :
- Area of rectangle = length x breadth
- Perimeter of rectangle ( 2D ) = 2( length + breadth )
Here,
= > Area of rectangular garden = 2400.00 m^2
= > length x breadth = 2400.00 m^2
= > ( 3 / 2 ) x breadth x breadth = 2400.00 m^2
= > breadth^2 = 2 x 2400.00 / 3 m^2
= > breadth^2 = 1600.00 m^2
= > breadth = 40.0 m
Thus, length = 3 / 2 x 40.0 m = 60 m
Therefore : Perimeter of rectangular garden = 2( 60.0 m + 40.0 m ) = 2( 100.0 ) = 200.0 m
Hence perimeter of the rectangular garden is 200.0 m.
Cost of leveling per sq m = Rs 3.5
Total cost of leveling garden = Rs 8400
Ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2
area = 2400 m²
2400 = 3x × 2x
2400 = 6x²
400 = x²
x = 20 m
Now length of rectangular garden = 3(20) = 60 m
Breadth of rectangular garden = 2(20) = 40 m .
Perimeter = 2 ( 60 + 40 )
Perimeter = 200 m
So the perimeter of given rectangular garden is 200 m .
