Question

Area of a rectangular playground in residential society is 2 2/5 km square and one of its sides is 1 2/5 km/ find the length of the other side

Answer 1

Explanation:

area of a rectangle is

length × width

so, in our case

2 2/5 km² = 1 2/5 × width (or length, it does not matter)

12/5 km² = 7/5 × width

width = 12/5 / 7/5 = 12×5 / 7×5 = 12/7 = 1 5/7 km
