The area of the rectangular plot is 1000 m squared. The length of one of the sides of this section

The area of the rectangular plot is 1000 m squared. The length of one of the sides of this section is 50 m. Find the perimeter of this section.

Let’s find what the length of the second side of this rectangular section is equal to.

Let us denote it by x.

According to the condition of the problem, the length of one of the sides of this section is 50 m, and the area of this section is 1000 m ^ 2, therefore, we can draw up the following equation:

x * 50 = 1000.

Solving this equation, we get:

x = 1000/50;

x = 20 m.

Knowing the length and width of a given section, we find its perimeter, as the doubled sum of the length and width of this section:

2 * (50 + 20) = 2 * 70 = 140 m.

Answer: the perimeter of this section is 140 m.
