Question

Write the ratio in simplest form for area of pool/ area of yard

Answer 1

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the map attached,

Area of the rectangular yard = length × width

Length of the yard = 10 units

Width of the yard = 8 units

Area = 10 × 8

        = 80 square yards

Since, pool is a composite figure of two rectangles,

Therefore, area of the pool = Area of large segment + Area of the small pool

= (5 × 6) + (3 × 3)

= 30 + 9

= 39 square units

Ratio of Area of the pool and area of yard = $\frac{39}{80}$

Therefore, Option (C) will be the answer.
