Q:

The length of a rectangular plot is 20 metres more than its breadth. If the cost of fencing the plot @ Rs. 26.50 per metre is Rs. 5300, what is the length of the plot in metres?

A) 20	B) 200
C) 300	D) 400

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 200

Explanation:

Let length of plot = L meters, then breadth = L - 20 meters

and perimeter = 2[L + L - 20] = [4L - 40] meters

[4L - 40] * 26.50 = 5300

[4L - 40] = 5300 / 26.50 = 200

4L = 240

L = 240/4= 60 meters.
