The area of a $ 60 \mathrm{~m} $ long rectangular garden is $ 300 \mathrm{sq} . \mathrm{m} $. Find the width of the garden.


Given:

The area of a \( 60 \mathrm{~m} \) long rectangular garden is \( 300 \mathrm{sq} . \mathrm{m} \).


To do:

We have to find the width of the garden.


Solution:

Let the width of the garden be $x$.

Area of a rectangle of length $l$ and breadth $b$ is $lb$.

This implies,

$60\times x=300$

$x=\frac{300}{60}$

$x=5\ m$


The width of the garden is 5 m.
