Un terreno de 4200 metros cuadrados de superficie se quiere dividir en dos lotes de manera que el lote menor sea tres cuartas pa
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

El lote menor tendrá 1800 m^2

El lote mayor tendrá 2400 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Definamos las variables:

M = superficie del lote mayor

m = superficie del lote menor.

Sabemos que el terreno tiene en total 4200 m^2

Entonces:

M + m = 4200 m^2.

Y queremos que el lote menor sea 3/4 del lote mayor, entonces:

m = (3/4)*M

Podemos reemplazar esto en la ecuación de arriba para obtener:

M + ( (3/4)*M) = 4200 m^2.

Y ahora podemos resolver esto para M

M + (3/4)*M = 4200m^2

M*(1 + 3/4) = 4200m^2

M*(4/4 + 3/4) = 4200 m^2

M*(7/4) = 4200m^2

M = (4/7)*(4200m^2) = 2400m^2

Esto significa que la superficie del mayor lote es 2400 m^2

Y la superficie del menor se puede obtener con la ecuación:

m = (3/4)*M

m = (3/4)*2400m^2 = 1800m^2

La superficie del lote menor es 1800m^2
