Question

The length and breadth of a rectangular field are in the ratio 4:5. If length is 20m, find breadth of the field.

Answer 1

Solution :-

The length and breath of a rectangular field are in the ratio 4 : 5

Let the given ratios be 4x and 5x

Here,

Length of the rectanglular field = 20m

Therefore,

20 = 4x

x = 5

Now,

The breath of the rectangle = 5x

Therefore,

The breath of the rectangle = 5 * 5 = 25m

Now,

As we know that,

Area of rectangle = Length * Breath

Area of rectangle = 20 * 25

Area of rectangle = 500m^2

Hence, The breath and area of rectangular field is 25m and 500m^2$.$

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's given that b/l = 4/5

Then 4l/5=b given L= 20m

Then 4*20/5=b

=>b=16m
