The ratio between the length and breadth of a rectangular park is 3 : 2. If a man cycling along the boundary of the park at the speed of 12 km/ h completes one round in 8 minutes, then the area of the park in sq. m is
Let length and breadth of the rectangular park be 3x and 2x
Distance covered by the man cycling around the park (in meters) is given by,
$$12 \times \frac{5}{18} \times 8 \times 60 = 1600$$
Perimeter of the rectangular park is equal to 1600
$$\therefore$$ 2(3x + 2x) = 1600
5x = 800 (or) x = 160
Area of the park = $$\times$$ 6x$$^{2}$$
= 6(160 x 160)
= 153600 sq.m
Hence, option B is the correct answer.
