The rectangular section is surrounded by a fence, the length of which is 64 m

The rectangular section is surrounded by a fence, the length of which is 64 m, and the width is 2.2 times less than the length. What is the area of the plot?

To begin with, we find out what the length of the fence, which enclosed the rectangular section, is equal to, if, according to the condition of the problem, it is known that it is 2.2 times less than the width equal to 64 meters:

We use the formula.

Divisor / Divisor = quotient.

64 / 2.2 ~ 29 meters.

Now it is easy to determine what the area of this section is equal to, if the length of the rectangular section is known by the condition of the problem:

We use the formula.

S = a * b, where a is the length, b is the width.

S = 29 * 64 = 1856 m2.

Answer: the area of a rectangular plot is 1856 m2.
