Question : The difference between the length and breadth of a rectangle is 40 metres. If its perimeter is 96 metres, then what will be the area of the rectangle?

Option 1: 254 m2

Option 2: 110 m2

Option 3: 176 m2

Option 4: 152 m2

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 176 m2


Solution : Let $l$ be the length and $b$ be the breadth.
$l-b = 40$
⇒ $l = 40+b$ ---------(i)
Perimeter = 96 m
$2(l+b) = 96$
⇒ $2(40+b+b) = 96$
⇒ $40+2b = 48$
⇒ $2b = 48-40 = 8$
⇒ $b = 4$
