The perimeter of a rectangular piece of land is 280m. People divide the land into two small pieces: a square, a rectangle. The total perimeter of the two small plots is 390m. Calculate the area of the original piece of land.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the Rectangular piece of the land = 12 + 1/2 m = 25/2 m

Breadth of the Rectangular piece of the land = 5 + 1/5 m = 26/5 m

If 4 small square flower bed of side length 1 m are made at center.

To find: Area of the rectangular land , Perimeter of the rectangle and Area of land left when flower bed are mad.

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × ( length + breadth )

= 2 × ( 25/2 + 26/5 )

= 2 × ( 177/10 )

= 177/5 m

= 35.4 m

Area of the rectangular land = Length × Breadth

= 25/2 × 26/5

= 5 × 13

= 65 m²

Area of a flower bed = side × side = 1 × 1 = 1 m²

Area of 4 flower bed= 4 × 1 = 4 m²

Area left in the land = 65 - 4 = 61 m²

Therefore, Perimeter of the land is 35.4 m

Area of land is 65 m²

Area of the land left after flower beds is 61 m²

452,489 to the nearest thousand is 452,000
