The length of a rectangular plot is thrice its breadth. If the area of the rectangular plot is 2700 m2, then what is the breadth of the rectangular plot?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 30m

Let the breadth of the rectangular plot be x.

Length of the plot = 3(Breadth) = 3x

Area of the rectangular plot = length(Breadth) = 2700 m2

x(3x) = 2700

3x2 = 2700

x2 = 900

x = 30 m
