Question

A rectangular farm 15 m wide and 20 m long has 250 chicks in it. find the density the chicks per unit area

Answer 1

5/6 of a chick per m^2

Explanation:

The area = 15 * 20 = 300 m^2.

So the density of the chicks is 250/300 = 5/6 of a chick per m^2.

Answer 2

The density the chicks per unit area = 5/6

Explanation:

It is given that, a rectangular farm 15 m wide and 20 m long has 250 chicks in it.

To find the area of farm

Area = Length * Breadth

= 20 * 15

= 300 square meter

To find the density

Here number of chicks = 250

Density = Number of chicks/Area

= 250/300

= 5/6
