    is 4 times the length. Find the area of rectangle.
    A 28cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 24cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 20cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 64cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    2(L + B) = 40 So L+ B = 20 ------(1) & L = 4B ------(2) Putting 2nd equation in 1st ; we will get So 4B + B = 20 So 5B = 20 or B = 4 cm So L = 4 × B = 4 × 4 = 16 cm So area of the rectangle = L× B = 16 × 4 = 64 cm²
