How many trees can be planted at a distance of 6 metres each around a rectangular plot whose length is 120 m and breadth is 90 m?

Length of the rectangular plot = 120 m

Breadth = 90 m

∴ Perimeter of the rectangular plot

= 2 [length + breadth]

= 2 [120 m + 90 m]

= 2 × 210 m = 420 m

Now distance between two trees = 6 m

∴ Number of trees around the rectangular plot = 420 m ÷ 6 m = 70
