Question
An agricultural field is in the form of a parallelogram, whose area is 68.75 sq.hm. The distance between the parallel sides is 6.25 cm. Find the length of the base

Solution
Height of the parallelogram = 6.25 hm
Area of the parallelogram = 68.75 sq.hm
b × h = 68.75
b × 6.25 = 68.75
b = `68.75/6.25`
= `6875/625`
= 11 km
Length of the base = 11 km.
