Question

A rectangular parking lot has an area of 7/10 km 2.The width is 1/3 km 2 .What is the length of the parking lot written as a improper fraction ,in kilometers

Answer 1

`(21)/(10)\text{ km}`.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Area of rectangular plot
`=(7)/(10)\text{ km}^2`

Width of rectangular plot
`=(1)/(3)\text{ km}`

We need to find the length of the parking lot.

We know that,

`\text{Area of rectangle}=length* width`

`(7)/(10)=length* (1)/(3)`

`(7* 3)/(10)=length`

`length=(21)/(10)`

Therefore, length of the parking lot is
`(21)/(10)\text{ km}`.
