Find the area of a rectangular park which is

Question:

Find the area of a rectangular park which is $36 \frac{3}{5} \mathrm{~m}$ long and $16 \frac{2}{3} \mathrm{~m}$ broad.

Solution:

Area of the rectangular park $=$ Length of the park $\times$ Breadth of the park    ( $\because$ Area of rectangle $=$ Length $\times$ Breadth)

$=36 \frac{3}{5} \times 16 \frac{2}{3}$

$=\left(36+\frac{3}{5}\right) \times\left(16+\frac{2}{3}\right)$

$=\frac{183}{5} \times \frac{50}{3}$

$=\frac{183 \times 50}{5 \times 3}$

$=\frac{9150}{15}$

$=610 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$

Therefore, the area of the rectangular park is $610 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$.
