Given : The Rectangular Plot has an Area of 78125 m²

Given : The Width of the Rectangular Plot is 125 m

We know that : Area of a Rectangle is given by : Length × Width

⇒ Area of the Rectangular Plot = Length × 125

⇒ Length × 125 = 78125

$\mathsf{\implies Length = \frac{78125}{125}}$

$\mathsf{\implies Length = 625\;Meters}$
