Question
Anmol has a chart paper of measure 90 cm × 40 cm, whereas Abhishek has one which measures 50 cm × 70 cm. Which will cover more area on the table and by how much?
Solution
Given, Anmol’s chart paper size = 90 cm × 40 cm
Here, Let 90 cm = length and 40 cm = breadth
∴ Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth = 90 × 40 = 3600 sq cm
Similarly, Abhishek’s chart paper size = 50 cm × 70 cm
Here, Let 50 cm = length and 70 cm = breadth
∴ Area of rectangle = Length x Breadth = 50 × 70 = 3500 sq cm
Hence, Anmol’s chart paper will cover more area as the table.
More area = 3600 – 3500 = 100 sq cm
