The perimeter of a garden plot is 100 m. Find its area if the plot length is 3: 2.

We find how many meters is the sum of the length and width of the garden plot.

To do this, we divide 100 meters into 2 parts.

100/2 = 50 m.

Since the length is related to the width as 3: 2, then the sum of equal parts will be:

3 + 2 = 5.

Thus, the length value will be:

3/5 * 50 = 3 * 10 = 30 m.

The width value will be:

2/5 * 50 = 2 * 10 = 20 m.

Determine the area of the garden plot.

30 * 20 = 600 m2

Answer:

Garden area 600 m2
