The ratio of the length and breadth of a rectangular plot is 5 : 4. If the breadth is 20 meters less than the length, what is the perimeter of the plot?
A
360 m
B
400 m
C
240 m
D
180 m

Correct Answer 360 m
Explanation
Difference in ratio = 1 unit. 1 unit = 20m. Length = 5 * 20 = 100m, Breadth = 4 * 20 = 80m. Perimeter = 2(L + B) = 2(100 + 80) = 360m.
