A rectangular field is 240m wide. The width of the field is 3/8 the length. What is the area of the field in square kilometers r
2 answers:
Let the length of the rectangular field be x.
Given, the width of the field is 3/8 of the length.
So width = =
Given, the width of the rectangular field = 240m
So we can write the equation as,
First we have to move 8 to the right side by multiplying 8 to both sides.
We can get x, by moving 3 to the right side by dividing 3 to both sides.
So we have got the length of the rectangular field = 640m = 0.64 km.
width of the field = 240m = 0.24 km.
We know the formula to find the area of the rectangle =
where, = length and
= width
By plugging in the values in the formula we will get,
Area =
= =
( Approximately taken to the nearest thousandth)
So we have got the required answer.
The area of the rectangular field =

Answer:
Integers ={Positive Natuaral Number +Natural numbers having negative sign behind it+Zero}
={------,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,..........}
→Points marked on the X and Y axis on the Coordinate Plane=Integers only
→Point to be marked on the coordinate plane =(-0.5,2)
→As, points on both X and Y axis are integers only.To mark, -0.5 , mark a line between , 0 and -1,that will be ,-0.5.
→You can mark , any terminating decimal on the number line, which is marked with integers only.
→Terminating decimals are those decimals having in the denominator of a fraction.
So, to plot any terminating Decimal on the coordinate plane, you have to use property of Rational Numbers ,which is, you can find infinite number of terminating Decimal between two terminating Decimal.
→Mark -0.5 between 0 and -1 on the X axis.Similarly, mark integer 2 on the Y axis.Draw a line parallel to Y axis ,passing from (-0.5,0) and line parallel to X axis passing through (0,2).The intersection of these two lines will be required point (-0.5,2).
