In the given questions, two quantities are given. One as Quantity-I and another is Quantity-II. You have to determine relationship between these two quantities and choose the appropriate options as given below:
The side of a square garden (A) is equal to that of the breadth of a rectangular garden (B). The respective ratio between the length and the breadth of garden B is 5:4. The cost of fencing of garden A is Rs30 less than the cost of fencing of garden B. (both at the rate of Rs5 per metre)
Quantities:
I. The length of the garden B.
II. 20 metres

A

Quantity- I `gt` Quantity-II

B

Quantity- I `lt` Quantity-II

C

Quantity- I `le` Quantity-II

D

Quantity- I `ge` Quantity-II

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the information given and derive the necessary quantities. ### Step 1: Define the Variables Let the side of the square garden (A) be denoted as \( s \). According to the problem, the breadth of the rectangular garden (B) is equal to the side of the square garden, so: \[ \text{Breadth of garden B} = s \] ### Step 2: Establish the Ratio We know that the ratio of the length to the breadth of garden B is \( 5:4 \). If we let the breadth be \( 4x \), then the length will be \( 5x \). Since the breadth of garden B is equal to the side of the square garden: \[ s = 4x \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Perimeters - The perimeter of the square garden A is: \[ \text{Perimeter of A} = 4s = 4(4x) = 16x \] - The perimeter of the rectangular garden B is: \[ \text{Perimeter of B} = 2(\text{Length} + \text{Breadth}) = 2(5x + 4x) = 2(9x) = 18x \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Cost of Fencing The cost of fencing is given at the rate of Rs 5 per meter. - Cost of fencing for garden A: \[ \text{Cost of A} = 5 \times \text{Perimeter of A} = 5 \times 16x = 80x \] - Cost of fencing for garden B: \[ \text{Cost of B} = 5 \times \text{Perimeter of B} = 5 \times 18x = 90x \] ### Step 5: Set Up the Equation Based on the Given Condition We know that the cost of fencing for garden A is Rs 30 less than that of garden B: \[ 80x = 90x - 30 \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( x \) Rearranging the equation: \[ 80x + 30 = 90x \] \[ 30 = 90x - 80x \] \[ 30 = 10x \] \[ x = 3 \] ### Step 7: Calculate the Length of Garden B Now, we can find the length of garden B: \[ \text{Length of garden B} = 5x = 5 \times 3 = 15 \text{ meters} \] ### Step 8: Compare Quantities We need to compare the length of garden B (15 meters) with 20 meters (Quantity II): - Quantity I: Length of garden B = 15 meters - Quantity II: 20 meters Since \( 15 < 20 \), we conclude that: **Quantity I is less than Quantity II.** ### Final Conclusion The answer is that Quantity I is less than Quantity II. ---
