Question

The ratio of length to width of a rectangular park is 9:5. If the width of the park is 40m. Find the length of the park.​

Answer 1

Answer:

72 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of length to width is 9:5

Let the common multiple be y

∴ Length = 9y and width = 5y

Now, width = 40 (given)

∴ 5y = 40

y = 8

∴ Length = 9y = 9 × 8 = 72 m
