Question

Find the area of a rectangular park which is $41\frac{2}{3}$ m long and $18\frac{3}{5}$ m broad.

Answer 1

Length of the rectangular park = $41\frac{2}{3}\mathrm{m}=\frac{125}{3}\mathrm{m}$

Its breadth = $18\frac{3}{5}\mathrm{m}=\frac{93}{5}\mathrm{m}$

∴ Its area = length $\times$ breadth

= $\left(\frac{125}{3}\times \frac{93}{5}\right)\mathrm{m}$²
= (25 $\times$ 31) m = 775 m²

Hence, the area of the rectangular park is 775 m².
