Question

Please help me with this question.

Answer 1

330 m²

Explanation:

the area (A) of the rectangular field is calculated as

A = length × breadth

here length = 22 m and breadth = 20 m , then

A = 22 × 20 = 440 m²

25% of 440 m²

=
`(25)/(100)` × 440

= 0.25 × 440

= 110 m²

so 110 m² is used to feed her chickens , then

area used to feed her horse = 440 - 110 = 330 m²

Answer 2

`\sf \textsf{ Zara uses }\underline{ 330 m^2 }`

Explanation:

In order to find the area Zara uses to feed her horse, we'll first calculate the total area of her rectangular field and then determine the portion she uses for feeding her horse.

Given:

• Length of the field = 22 m
• Width of the field = 20 m

We have:

`\textsf{ The total area of the rectangular field} \sf = Length * Width`

Substituting value:

`\sf \textsf{The total area of the rectangular field }= 22 m * 20 m`

`\sf \textsf{ The total area of the rectangular field }= 440 m^2`

Now, Zara uses 25% of the area to feed her chickens.

In order to find the area used to feed her horse, we need to subtract this amount from the total area.

`\sf \textsf{ Area used for feeding chickens }= 25\% \textsf{ of total area}`

`\sf \textsf{ Area used for feeding chickens} = (25)/(100) * 440 \: m^2`

`\sf \textsf{ Area used for feeding chickens} = 110 m^2`

`\textsf{ Area used to feed her horse = Total area - Area used for feeding chickens}`

Therefore,

`\sf \textsf{ Area used to feed her horse } = 440 m^2 - 110 m^2`

`\sf \textsf{ Area used to feed her horse } = 330 m^2`

`\textsf{ So, Zara uses }\sf 330 m^2 \textsf{ of her rectangular field to feed her horse.}`
