Question

The area of a rectangle is 8.4 $c{m}^2$. If the length is 3.2 $cm$, then the breadth is $cm$.

• A. 2.625
• B. 2.630
• C. 2.36

Answer 1

The correct option is A 2.625

The length of the rectangle = 3.2 $cm$
The area of the rectangle = 8.4 ${cm}^2$

Area of rectangle = length $\times$ breadth
$\Rightarrow$ 8.4 = 3.2 $\times$ breadth
$\Rightarrow \frac{8.4}{3.2}$ = breadth
$\Rightarrow$breadth = $\frac{84}{32}$
$\Rightarrow$breadth = 2.625 $cm$
