Question

the length of the rectangle is 20 per cent more than it's breadth. what will be the ratio of the area of a rectangle to that of a square whose side is equal to the breadth of the rectangle​

Answer 1

6:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth of rectangle be x

The length of a rectangle is 20% more than its breadth

Length =  

Area of rectangle =  

Area of rectangle =  

                           =  

Side of square = Breadth of rectangle = x

So, area of square =  

Now  the ratio of the area of a rectangle to that of a square =  

                                                                                                  =  

                                                                                                  =  

Hence the ratio of the area of a rectangle to that of a square is 6:5
