Border width puzzle in a 50 by 40 field
A farmer plows a uniform border inside a 50 rod by 40 rod field and finds 60 percent of the area plowed. Let X be border width. The inner rectangle has dimensions (50 minus 2X) by (40 minus 2X) and equals 1200 square rods. Solve: (50 minus 2X)(40 minus 2X) = 1200. Expanding yields 2000 minus 180X plus 4X^2 = 1200, so 4X^2 minus 180X plus 800 equals 0, divide by 4: X^2 minus 45X plus 200 equals 0. Solutions X = [45 ± sqrt(2025 minus 800)]/2 = [45 ± sqrt(1225)]/2 = [45 ± 35]/2. Positive width options: X = (45 minus 35)/2 = 5, or X = (45 plus 35)/2 = 40. Discard 40 as too large. thus border width is 5 rods.
