Question

which piece of cloth is bigger and by how much ? 16m length and 11.5 m breadth or 19m length and 13.8m breadth.

Answer 1

Area of Cloth A = 16 m x 11.5 m = 184 m²
Area of Cloth B = 19 m x 13.8 m = 262.2 m²
Therefore, the second cloth is bigger.

Answer 2

area of 1 cloth
L= 16m
B=11.5m
A= LxB
=16×11.5
=214.0m
area of 2 cloth
L= 19m
B= 13.8m
A= LxB
= 19x13.8
=262.2m
therefore,
262.2-214.0
= 48.2m
