One side of the rectangular pond is 360 m, and the other is 140 m larger. Find the area of the pond.

1. Let’s find the side of the pond if it is known that it is 140 m larger than the other side, which is 360 m:

360 + 140 = 500 m.

2. Find the area of the pond, we know that the pond has a rectangular shape, so the area is found by the formula for determining the area of a rectangle:

S = a * b, where a is the width and b is the length:

S = 360 * 500 = 180,000 m2.

Answer: the area of the pond is 180,000 m2.
