The difference between the length and breadth of a rectangle is 23 m. If its perimeter is 206 m, then its area is:
A
2480 m²
B
2420 m²
C
1520 m²
D
2520 m²
Correct Option:
D
Explanation
For a rectangle, 2(l + b) = 206, so l + b = 103. Also, l − b = 23. Adding the equations gives 2l = 126, so l = 63 and b = 40. The area is 63 × 40 = 2520 m².
