Mr jb has a rectangular lot that measure 550 meters by 0.75 km.What is the area of the land in square meter. He is selling the whole lot for 206, 250,000 pesos, how much is the price per square meter

Answer 1

Answer:

The area in square meter is 412,500 square meters

the price per square meter is 500 pesos per square meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let us get the measure of the dimensions in meters

Mathematically, 1000 m = 1 km

Thus;

0.75 km = 0.75 * 1000 = 750 m

The area of a rectangle is the product of its side lengths

mathematically, we have this as;

550 * 750 = 412,500 square meters

To get the price per square meter, we have to divide the price of the whole plot by the area

So we have ;

(206,250,000) pesos / 412,500 square meters

= 500 pesos per square meter
