Solution

The correct option is D 10cm
let commom multiple of ratios of rectangles be y
area of AQPF = 3y
area of PEDC = 2y
area of ABCQ = y
hence area of FEDB = 3y+2y+y = 6y

according to given condition
area of FEDB = 6y
24 = 6y
y = 246 = 4

area of rectangle ABCQ = y = 4
length ×breadth = 4
AB×BC = 4
1×BC = 4
BC = 4

perimeter of ABCQ = 2(length + breadth)
= 2(BC+AB) = 2(4+1)
= 2(5) = 10cm
