The correct Answer is:
To find the area of the floor of the room, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given information We know that: - The area of the four walls of the room is \( 660 \, m^2 \). - The height of the room \( H \) is \( 11 \, m \). - The length \( L \) is twice the breadth \( B \) (i.e., \( L = 2B \)). ### Step 2: Use the formula for the area of the four walls The formula for the area of the four walls of a room is given by: \[ \text{Area of four walls} = 2H(L + B) \] Substituting the known values, we have: \[ 660 = 2 \times 11 \times (L + B) \] ### Step 3: Simplify the equation First, calculate \( 2 \times 11 \): \[ 660 = 22(L + B) \] Now, divide both sides by \( 22 \): \[ L + B = \frac{660}{22} = 30 \] ### Step 4: Substitute \( L \) in terms of \( B \) Since \( L = 2B \), we can substitute this into the equation: \[ 2B + B = 30 \] This simplifies to: \[ 3B = 30 \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( B \) Now, divide both sides by \( 3 \): \[ B = \frac{30}{3} = 10 \, m \] ### Step 6: Find \( L \) Now, using \( L = 2B \): \[ L = 2 \times 10 = 20 \, m \] ### Step 7: Calculate the area of the floor The area of the floor is given by: \[ \text{Area of floor} = L \times B = 20 \times 10 = 200 \, m^2 \] ### Final Answer The area of the floor is \( 200 \, m^2 \). ---
