Question

The length of a rectangular garden is 120 m and its area is 7200 sq m. What is its breadth?

Answer 1

Length of the rectangular garden = l = 120 m
Let the breadth of the rectangular garden be b m.
Area of the rectangular garden = 7200 m²
length × breadth = 7200
120 × b = 7200
$b=\frac{7200}{120}\left(\mathrm{On}\mathrm{dividing}\mathrm{both}\mathrm{side}s\mathrm{by}120\right)$
b = 60 m
∴ Breadth of the rectangular garden is 60 m.
