Correct Question:
The ratio between the length and breadth of a rectangular park is 3 : 2. If a man cycling along the boundary of the park at the speed of 12 km/hr completes one round in 8 minutes, then the area of the park.
Answer:
- The area of the park = 153.6 km
Given:
- Ratio between the length and breadth of a rectangular park is 3 : 2.
- Speed :- 12 km/hr
- Time :- 8 min
To Find:
- Area of the park.
Solution:
Perimeter = Distance covered in 8m
Distance = speed × time
→ 12 × 8/60
→ 1.6km
Now,
→ 2(Length + Breadth) = Distance
→ 2(3a+2a) = 1.6km
→ 2(5a) = 16×100m
→ 10a = 1600
→ a = 1600/10
→ a = 160m
Then,
- Length = 3a = 3 × 160 = 480 m
- Breadth = 2a = 2 × 160 = 320 m
So,
★Area of the rectangle = Length ×Breadth
→ 480 × 320
→ 153600 m
→ 153.6 km
∴ The area of the park = 153.6 km.
Hence,
- Area of the park = 153.6 km
