23th Question – Answer
A rectangular field has an area of 120 square meters and a length-to-width ratio of 3:2. What are the lengths of the sides?
Solution:
Let x be the length of the shorter side of the rectangle. Then the length of the longer side is 3x/2.
The area of the rectangle is given by:
Area = x * (3x/2) = 120
Solving for x, we get:
x^2 = 80
x = 4√5
Therefore, the lengths of the sides are:
- Shorter side: 4√5 meters
- Longer side: 6√5 meters
