there is a rectangular plot dimensions are in the ratio of 13:7. at the rate of Rs. 50 per meter ,it will cost Rs. 40000 to fence the plot. What are the dimensions of the plot
Answers

Let the length and breadth's common ratio: x in metre
∴ Length :11x and Breadth :4x
Perimeter ⇒2(l+b)
=2(11x+4x)=30x
As per the question:
Cost of fencing plot at rate of Rs.100 per meter is Rs.75000
∴100× Perimeter =75000
3000x=75000
x=25
Length =11×x=11×25=275 m
Breadth =4x,=4×25=100 m

Step-by-step explanation:
First we do the ratio which was given that 13:7
we will take 13x + 7x
so the perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+b)
= 2 (13x +7x)
= 2 ×20x
= 40x
at the rate of rupees 50 = 40x ×50
= 2000x
there having a rupees 40000 to fence the plot
= 40000÷ 2000x
= x = 20
7x = 7 × 20 = 140 m
13x = 13×20 = 260 m
therefore, the dimensions of plot are 140 m and 260 m
