    A 5000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 5650 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 5630 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 5600 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the radius of the circle = ‘r’ cm Circumference of the circle = 2πr 55 = 2 × (22/7) × r r = 8.75 Radius of the circle = 8.75 cm Length of the rectangle = 8.75 × 8 = 70 cm Breadth of the rectangle = (70/7) × 8 = 80 cm Area of the rectangle = 70 × 80 = 5600 cm2
