  1. A \(60 \mathrm{~cm}\)
  2. B \(50 \mathrm{~cm}\)
  3. C \(40 \mathrm{~cm}\)
  4. D \(20 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(40 \mathrm{~cm}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Here, \(\frac{P}{Q}=\frac{2}{3}\) We know \(\begin{aligned} \frac{P}{Q} & =\frac{l}{100-l} \\ \Rightarrow \quad \frac{2}{3} & =\frac{l}{100-l} \\ \Rightarrow \quad l & =40 \mathrm{~cm}\end{aligned}\)
