A lawn is in the form of a rectangle having its sides in the ratio 2: 3. The
area of the lawn is (1/6) hectares. Find breadth of the lawn.
Choose the correct choice from the following:
A) 15 m
B) 20 m
C) 25 m
D) 35 m
E) 50 m
Let length = 2x metres and breadth = 3x metre.   Now, area = (1/6 )x 1000 m2 = 5000/3m2   So, 2x * 3x = 5000/3 &lt;=&gt;x2= 2500/9 &lt;=&gt;x = 50/3   therefore Breadth = 3x = 3(50/3) m   = 50m.   ANSW50 mR 50 m 50 m
