Question

Find the area of the playground in which children are playing.

• A. 20 square yards
• B. 25 square yards
• C. 30 square yards
• D. 35 square yards

Answer 1

The correct option is B 25 square yards

Area where children are playing = Half the area of the playground.

Playground is in the shape of a rectangle.

Area of the playground
= Length × Width
= $10\times 5$
= 50 square yards

Half of the area of the playground
= $50÷2$ = 25 square yards

Area where grass has to be laid
= 25 square yards
