50 square stone slabs of equal size were needed to cover a floor area of 72 sq.m. Find the length of each stone slab.

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let original length = x metres and original breadth = y metres.

\begin{aligned}
\text{Original area } = \text{xy } m^2 \\
\text{New Length }= \frac{120}{100}x = \frac{6}{5}x \\
\text{New Breadth }= \frac{120}{100}y = \frac{6}{5}y \\
=>\text{New Area }= \frac{6}{5}x * \frac{6}{5}y \\
=>\text{New Area }= \frac{36}{25}xy \\

\text{Area Difference} = \frac{36}{25}xy - xy \\
= \frac{11}{25}xy \\

Increase \% = \frac{Differnce}{Actual}*100 \\
= \frac{11xy}{25}*\frac{1}{xy}*100 = 44\%

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the triangle and parallelogram have common base b,
let the Altitude of triangle is h1 and of parallelogram is h2(which is equal to 100 m), then
\begin{aligned}
\text{Area of triangle =}\frac{1}{2}*b*h1\\
\text{Area of rectangle =}b*h2\\
\text{As per question }\\
\frac{1}{2}*b*h1 = b*h2 \\

\frac{1}{2}*b*h1 = b*100 \\

h1 = 100*2 = 200 m \\

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let breadth =x metres.
Then length =(115x/100)metres.
\begin{aligned}
=x*\frac{115x}{100}= 460\\
x^2=(460 x 100/115) \\
x^2=400 \\
x= 20 \\
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

\begin{aligned} l*b = 460 m^2 \end{aligned} .. (i)
Lets suppose breadth of plot is = b rnLength will be,\begin{aligned}l=b*\frac{100+15}{100}\\=\frac{115b}{100}\end{aligned} .. (ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get :
\begin{aligned}
\frac{115b}{100}*b = 460 \\
b^2 = \frac{46000}{115} = 400 \\
=> b = \sqrt{400} = 20 meter
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In this question, we are having perimeter.
We know Perimeter = 2(l+b), right
So,
2(l+b) = 340
As we have to make 1 meter boundary around this, so
Area of boundary = ((l+2)+(b+2)-lb)
= 2(l+b)+4 = 340+4 = 344

So required cost will be = 344 * 10 = 3440
