Question

The length of a rectangular plot of land is 1 17/25

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, we get

Width of the plot = $4\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{4\times 1+1}{6}=\dfrac{25}{6}$ yards.

Length of a rectangular plot is $1\dfrac{17}{25}$ times of its width.

$1\dfrac{17}{25}=\dfrac{25\times 1+17}{25}=\dfrac{42}{25}$

It means

$Length=\dfrac{42}{25}\times width$

$Length=\dfrac{42}{25}\times \dfrac{25}{6}$

$Length=7$

The length of the plot is 7 yards. Therefore, the correct option is B.

Answer 2

Answer:

B. 7 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

4 (1)/(6)*1 (17)/(25)= 7
