There is a plot which is rectangular in shape and it area is 460 square metres. What will be breadth of the plot if length of plot is 15% more than the breadth of plot ?

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

As far as questions of Area or Volume and Surface area are concerned, it is all about formulas and very little logic. So its a sincere advice to get all formulas remembered before solving these questions.

Lets solve this,

\begin{aligned}
\text{Area of rectangle =}l*b\\
\text{Area of triangle =}\frac{1}{2}l*b\\
\text{Ratio =}l*b:\frac{1}{2}l*b \\
= 1:\frac{1}{2} \\
= 2:1

\end{aligned}

One little thing which should be taken care in this type of question is, be sure you are calculating ration in the given order of the question.
If it is ratio of triangle and rectangle then we have to write triangle formula first. cheers :)

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the original radius be R cm. New radius = 2R

\begin{aligned}
Area = \pi R^2 \\
\text{New Area =} \pi {2R}^2 \\
= 4\pi R^2 \\
\text{Increase in area =}(4\pi R^2 - \pi R^2) \\
= 3\pi R^2 \\
\text{Increase percent =} \frac{3\pi R^2}{\pi R^2}*100 \\
= 300 \%
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

From the question, 2b+l = 30
=> l = 30-2b
\begin{aligned}
Area = 100m^2 \\
=> l \times b = 100 \\
=> b(30-2b) = 100 \\
b^2 - 15b + 50 = 0 \\
=>(b-10)(b-5)=0 \\
\end{aligned}
b = 10 or b = 5
when b = 10 then l = 10
when b = 5 then l = 20
Since the garden is rectangular so we will take value of breadth 5.
So its dimensions are 20 m * 5 m

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

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}
