Solution

There is a narrow rectangular plot, reserved for a school, in mahuli village. the length and breadth of the plot are in the ratio 11:4.

let the common multiple be x

the length will be 11x

breadth = 4x

Perimeter = 2( L + B )

=2(11x+4x)

= 2*15x

=30x

At the rate Rs 100 per meter

30x * 100 = 3000x

3000x= 75000

3x=75

x=25

11x = 11*25 = 275m

4x=4*25 = 100 m

275m & 100m are the dimensions of the Plot
