Question :
A rectangular field is 15 2/3 meters long and 12 4/5 metres wide. Find its perimeter.
--------------
Before, finding the answer. Let's find out how we can find the answer.
- In this question, we are asked to find the perimeter of the Rectangular field.
____________________
Given :
- Length = 15 2/3
- Breadth = 12 4/5
To find :
- the perimeter of the rectangular field
Solution :
⇒ Let's first convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction.
Length = 15 2/3
= 15 × 3 + 2/3
= 45 + 2/3
= 47/3 meters
Breadth = 12 4/5
= 12 × 5 + 4/5
= 60 + 4/5
= 64/5 meters
⇒ Next, let's find the Perimeter of the Rectangular Field.
Perimeter of Rectangle = 2(l + b)
= 2(47/3 + 64/5)
= 2 (47/15 + 64/15) [Denominator becomes 15 ∵ 3 × 5 = 15]
= 2 × 111/15
= 222/15
Therefore, the Perimeter of the Rectangular field is 222/15 m.
