Question

A square and a rectangle garden have the same perimeter. The length of the square garden is 50 m if the length of the rectangular garden is 70m find its breadth


​

Answer 1

GIVEN-

Perimeter of square = Perimeter of rectangle

Side of square garden - 50m

Length of rectangular garden - 70m

TO FIND -

Breadth (b) of the rectangular garden

SOLUTION-

$\boxed{Perimeter\:of\:a\:square =\:4a}$

$\boxed{Perimeter\:of\:a\:rectangle=\:2(l+b)}$

According to given,

4a = 2(l+b)

4(50) = 2(70 + b)

200 = 140 + 2b

200 - 140 = 2b

60 = 2b

b = 30m

$\huge{Breadth = 30m}$
