Solution

The correct option is A 16

The shaded region represents 13

If the area of the whole is given as 1 sq. km

The area of its third=13 of 1=13 sq.km

Area of each plot=13 sq. km

Now, each plot is equally shared among 2 farmers.

Area allotted to each farmer =13 sq. km÷2

Calculating 13÷2 using the keepchangeflip method.


Calculating 13×12, we get:

13×12=1×13×2=16

The area allotted to each farmer is 16 sq. km.
