Q:

Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. What is the ratio of the length of a rectangle to the side of a square?

I. The area of the square is 576 sq cm and the area of the rectangle is 600 sq cm.

II. The breadth of the rectangle is half the side of the square.

A) The data in Statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.	B) The data in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
C) The data in either Statement I alone are in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.	D) The data in both the Statements I and II are not sufficient to answer the question.

Answer & Explanation Answer:

Explanation:

From statement I, Area of square = 576 sq cm
Side of square = 24 cm
Area of rectangle = l × b
l × b = 600 sq cm
From statement II, Suppose the breadth of the
rectangle is x. Then side of the square = 2x
Combining both the information, we have
x =12 cm
Now, l × 12 = 600

$l = \frac{600}{12} = 50 c m$

Required ratio = $\frac{50}{24} = \frac{25}{12} = 25 : 12$

Both the statements together are sufficient.
