Answer:
The area of he pool is 1250 sq. meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the dimensions of the pool in the drawing are:
Length = 20 cm
Width = 10 cm
Now, SCALE is 1 cm = 250 cm
⇒ The actual dimensions of the pool are
Length' (L') = 20 cm x 250 = 5000 cm
Width' (W') = 10 cm x 250 = 2500 cm
Now, 1 m = 100 cm
⇒ 5000 cm = (5000 /100) m = 50 m
and 2500 cm = (2500 / 100) m = 25 m
AREA OF THE RECTANGULAR POOL = LENGTH' x WIDTH'
= 50 m x 25 m
= 1,250 sq m
Hence, the area of he pool is 1250 square meters.
