How many rectangular plots of dimensions 40 m by 60 m can be made from a rectangular field of dimensions 120 m by 160 m?

How many rectangular plots of dimensions 40 m by 60 m can be made from a rectangular field of dimensions 120 m by 160 m? Correct Answer 8

Given:

Dimension of smaller rectangular plot = 40 × 60

Dimension of larger rectangular plot = 120 × 160

Formula used:

Area of rectangle = Length × width

Calculation:

Area of smaller rectangular plots = (40 × 60) m2

⇒ 2400 m2

Area of larger rectangular plots = (120 × 160) m2

⇒ 19200 m2

Number of rectangular plots which can be made = (19200 m2/2400 m2)

⇒ 8

∴ The required number of rectangular plots is 8
