      The ratio of length to breadth of a rectangle is 5:4,

      respectively. Perimeter of rectangle is 198 cm. If each side of a square is 25% more than the breadth of rectangle, then find the difference between perimeters of the square and the rectangle.
      A 12 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 16 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 20 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 22 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 18 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be 5x cm and 4x cm, respectively According to the question, 2 Γ— (5x + 4x) = 198 Or, x = 99/9 = 11 Therefore, each side of the square = 1.25 Γ— 4x = 55 cm Perimeter of the square = 4 Γ— 55 = 220 cm Required difference = 220 – 198 = 22 cm
