Detailed Solution

It is given a rectangle.
Length:Breadth=5:3
Let, length = 5x and breadth = 3x
So, Length = breadth + 8

5 x = 3x +8

2 x = 8 x = 4

Length is

⇒ 5 × 4 = 20 m

And breadth is

⇒ 3 × 4 = 12 m

We know that, Area of rectangle = length

×

breadth.

Area = 20 × 12 A r e a = 240 m 2

So, Area of the given rectangle is 240 m².
Therefore, the correct option is 1.
