Mathematics · Data Sufficiency
A path of 'x' meters width is constructed around a rectangular field. If the length of the rectangular field is 3 m more than its breadth, find the value of 'x'. Statement (I): There is a square whose side is 2 m more than the breadth of the rectangular field and the area of the square is 50 m2 more than the area of the rectangular field. Statement (II): The total cost of construction of the path around the rectangular field is Rs. 1920 and the rate of construction of the path is Rs. 40/m2.
- 1The data given in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question, as the layout of the path (inside or outside) is unspecified.✓
- 2The data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer.
- 3The data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer, while the data in statement I alone is not sufficient.
- 4The data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer, while the data in statement II alone is not sufficient.
Correct answer
The data given in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question, as the layout of the path (inside or outside) is unspecified.
