    If the length and the breadth of a rectangle are in the ratio 3 : 2 with its perimeter as 20 cm, then the area of the rectangle (in \[c{{m}^{2}}\]) must be

    A)  24                   

    B)  48

    C)  72                               

    D)  96

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let the length of rectangle \[=3x\,cm\] And the breadth of rectangle \[=2x\,cm\] \[\therefore \]      \[2(3x+2x)=20\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[x=2\] \[\therefore \] Length of rectangle\[=6\,cm\] And breadth of rectangle\[=4\,cm\] \[\therefore \] Area of rectangle \[=6\times 4=24\,\,c{{m}^{2}}\]
