Answer 2

The required area of rectangular plot is 2560 cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that length of a rectangular plot is 60% more than its breadth. If the difference between the length and the breadth of that rectangle is 24cm.

Let breadth be x cm. Then, Length of rectangular Plot = 160/100x cm

• Length of rectangular Plot = 8/5x cm

According to the Question's Statement! (8/5)x - x = 24

→3x/5= 24

→ 3x = 24 × 5

→ x = 40 cm

Define breadth of rectangular plot:

∴ Breadth of rectangular Plot = 40 cm

• Find length of rectangular plot:

Length of Rectangular Plot = 8/5 × 40

Length of Rectangular Plot = 64

• Find area of rectangle:

∵ Area of Rectangular Plot = Length × Breadth

0r,Area of Rectangular Plot = 64 × 40cm²

0r,Area of Rectangular Plot = 2560 cm²

• Therefore, the required area of rectangular plot is 2560 cm².
