The correct Answer is:
To find the length of the rectangular field, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Area of the Rectangle We know that the total cost of putting a grass bed is given as 12,375 rupees, and the rate is 15 rupees per square meter. We can find the area of the rectangle using the formula: \[ \text{Total Cost} = \text{Area} \times \text{Rate} \] Rearranging the formula to find the area: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Rate}} = \frac{12375}{15} \] ### Step 2: Perform the Division Now we will perform the division to find the area: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{12375}{15} = 825 \text{ sq m} \] ### Step 3: Use the Area to Find the Length The area of a rectangle is given by the formula: \[ \text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Breadth} \] We know the breadth is 25 m, so we can rearrange the formula to find the length: \[ \text{Length} = \frac{\text{Area}}{\text{Breadth}} = \frac{825}{25} \] ### Step 4: Perform the Division to Find the Length Now we will perform the division to find the length: \[ \text{Length} = \frac{825}{25} = 33 \text{ m} \] ### Final Answer The length of the rectangular field is **33 meters**. ---
