40 percent of 250 = .4*250 = 100
100 seventh graders got the flu.
Let breadth(b) of rectangular be x
Then length(l) = 5x + 1
We have : perimeter(p) =2(l+b)
Or, p = 2 (5x+1+x)
p = 2 (6x+ 1)
p = 12x + 2
Given that p= 98 m
98=12x+2 i.e. x= 8
So breadth b= 8m and length l =5*8+1= 41m
40 square units is teh correct answer
