Question

The difference between the length and breadth of a rectangle is 23m. If its perimeter is 206 m, then its area is

• A. 1520 m2
• B. 2420 m2
• C. 2480 m2
• D. 2520 m2

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 2520 m2

$L-B=23m$ ------------(1)

Perimeter of rectangle $=2(L+B)=206m$

=>L+B=103m ------------(2)

By adding (1) and (2)

$2L=126m$

$L=63m$

$B=63-23$

$B=40m$

Area of Rectangle $= L\times{B}$

$=63\times{40}$

$=2520m^2$
