The length of a rectangular plot is five times of its breadth. If the area of the rectangular plot is 2000 m2, then what is the breadth of the rectangular plot?

40 m 10 m 20 m 30 m

20 m

Let the breath of the plot = x Then the length of the plot will be = 5x according to the question, Area of a rectangle = length × breadth Area of a rectangle = 5x × x = 5x2 5x2 = 2000 x2 = 400 x = 20 So the breadth = 20 m.
