The length of a rectangular garden is (5\text{ m}) more than its breadth and its area is (300\text{ m}^2). What is the breadth of the garden?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (15\text{ m})
Let the breadth be (x\text{ m}), so (x(x+5)=300), giving (x=15). In exams, reject the negative dimension.
