Question

The ratio of areas of a circular and rectangular field is 1:2. Find the area of the rectangular field if, the area of the circular field is $50m^2$.

• A. 25 m²
• B. 50 m²
• C. 100 m²
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C

100 m²

Given,

Area of a circular field = $50m^2$

The ratio of areas of a circular and rectangular field is 1:2.
So,$\frac{areaofcircularfield}{areaofrectangularfield}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$
By cross multiplying we get,
area of rectangular field = 2 $\times$area of circular field
$\Rightarrow$area of the rectangular field
= 2 $\times$ 50
= $100m^2$
