Question

A perimeter of arectangular pool is 154m .Its length is 2m is more than twice its breadth . what are the length and thebreadth of the pool

Answer 1

Perimeter of the rectangular swimming pool=154m
 
Let the breadth be=x

Then, the length=2x+2m 

Perimeter=2(l+b)

154=2(2x+2+x)

154=4x+4+2x

154=4x+2x+4

154=6x+4

154-4=6x

150=6x 

25=x

Breadth=25m

Length=2x+2m
             =2*x+2m
               =2*25+2m
               =50+2m =52m


Therefore,Breadth=25m and Length=52m
