      Question

      A rectangular piece of land has a perimeter of 56 metres

      and length of 22 metres. If the area of the land is to be divided into 6 equal portions, then what will be the area (in m2) of each portion
      A 22 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 21 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 24 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the breadth of the land = тАШbтАЩ metres Then, perimeter of the land = 2 ├Ч (22 + b) Or, 2 ├Ч (22 + b) = 56 Or, 44 + 2b = 56 Or, 2b = 56 тАУ 44 = 12 So, b = 12/2 = 6 And so, total area of the land = 22 ├Ч 6 = 132 m2 So, area of each of the 6 equal portions = 132 ├╖ 6 = 22 m2
