    The ratio of length and breadth of a rectangle is f 3. If length is 8 m more than breadth find the area rectangle.

    A) \[250\,\,{{m}^{2}}\]                

    B) \[300\,\,{{m}^{2}}\]

    C) \[210\,\,{{m}^{2}}\]                

    D) \[240\,\,{{m}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Let length and breadth of a rectangle are 5x And 3x Then,    \[5x=3x+8\] \[5x-3x=8\] \[2x=8\] \[x=4\] Now,     length \[=5x=20\,\,m\] and       breadth\[=3x=3\times 4\] \[=12\,\,m\]      Hence,  area of rectangle\[=length\times breadth\] \[=20\times 12\] \[=240\,\,{{m}^{2}}\]
