Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements marked P and Q given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and: Give answer:
The area of a playground is 484 sq. metres. What is its perimeter?
P. It cots Rs. 912 to put a fence around the playground.
Q. The playground is a perfect square.
Since the area is 484 sq. cm:
P. If it costs Rs. 912 to fence the playground, we need to get the cost of fencing per cm to arrive at the perimeter of the playground. However, the same is not mentioned, and hence, we cannot answer the question using this data.
Q. If the playground is a perfect square, we can use the given area to find the value of each of the sides. The sides, thus, are of 22 cm. From this, we can find the perimeter, which is four times the side, that becomes 88 cm.
