Tahir measured the distance around a square field as 200 rods (lathi). Later he found that the length of this rod was 140cm. Find the side of this field in metres.

Dear Student

From the question it is given that,

Tahir measured the distance around a square field as 200 rods Length of the rod = 140 cm
So, total distance of square field = 200 × 140

= 28000 cm
Then, length of one side of square field = 28000/4

= 7000 cm
We know that, 1 m = 100 cm Therefore, side of field = 7000/100

= 70 m
Thanks
