In exchange for a square plot of land one of whose sides is 84 m, A man wants to buy a rectangular plot 144 m long and of the same area as the square plot. Determine the width of the rectangular plot.
Given:
Side of the square plot of the land $=84\ m$
Length of the rectangular plot $=144\ m$
Area of the rectangular plot is equal to the area of the square plot.
To do:
We have to find the width of the rectangular plot.
Solution:
Area of the square plot $=(84)^2$
$=7056\ m^2$
Let the width of the rectangular plot be $x$.
Area of the rectangular plot $=144\times x$
Therefore,
$144\times x=7056$
$x=\frac{7056}{144}$
$x=49\ m$
The width of the rectangular plot is $49\ m$.
