The length of the rectangular section is 400 m, and the width is 7/8 of the length. Find the area of this site.

The area of the rectangular area will be equal to the product of the length and width.

1. Since the length of the section is known and it is known what part of the length is the width, we determine the width of the section:

400/8 * 7 = 350 (m);

2. The area of a rectangular section is equal to the product of its length and width:

400 * 350 = 140,000 sq.m.

Answer: The area of this plot = 140,000 sq. M.
