Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:Answer:
Given :-
Ratio of Length and Breadth = 11 : 4
Cost of fencing = 75000
To Find:-
Dimensions of the plot.
Formula to be used :-
Perimeter of rectangular plot = 2(Length + Breadth)
Solution :-
Let the Length be 11x m.
And the Breadth be 4x m.
⇒ Perimeter of rectangular plot = 2 (Length + Breadth)
⇒ Perimeter of rectangular plot = 2 (11x + 4x)
⇒ Perimeter of rectangular plot = 30x m
Cost of fencing = Perimeter × Rate per meter
⇒ 75,000 = 30x × 1000
⇒ 75,000 = 3000x
⇒ 75000/3000 = x
⇒ 25 = x
Length = 11x = 11 × 25 = 275 m
Breadth = 4x = 4 × 25 = 100 m
Hence, the dimensions of the plot are 275 m and 100 m.
