Question

1. Solve :

1) The breadth of a rectangular garden is ⅔
of its length. If its perimeter is 40m, find its dimensions.

​

Answer 1

Answer:

l = 8m b = 16/3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x

then , breadth = 2/3 x

perimeter = 40 m

perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+b)

40 = 2(x + 2/3x)

40/2 = 5x/2

20 = 5x/2

20×2 = 5x

40/5 = x

8 = x

therefore , length = x = 8m

and breadth = 2/3 x = 16/3 m
