The length of a rectangular plot is thrice its breadth. If the area of the rectangular plot is 867 sq m, then what is the breadth of the rectangular plot?

  • A.8.5 m
  • B.17 m
  • C.34 m
  • D.51 m

Answer: B

With \( l = 3b \):

\[ 3b \times b = 3b^{2} = 867 \quad\Longrightarrow\quad b^{2} = 289 \]

\[ b = 17 \text{ m} \]

The length is then 51 m, which is offered as a distractor for anyone who solves for the wrong side.
