Question

a rectangle has a perimeter of 50. if the length and width are in a ratio 2:3 what is the area​

Answer 1

Answer:

2(l+b)=50 l+b=25

let l=2x and b=3x (since ratio is 2:3)

so sum of l and b =2x+3x=5x

5x=25

so x =5

putting value of x in l and b l becomes 2×5=10

and width becomes 3×5=15
