Answer
We have ,
perimeter (length of wire) of rectangle = 86 cm
let breadth of rectangle = x cm
then,length is =(x+7) cm
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)
=>> 86 cm = { 2(x+7) + 2(x) } cm
=>> 86 = 2x+2x+14
=>> 86-14 = 4x
=>> 72 = 4x
=>> x =18 cm
hence length of the rectangle= (x+7) = 18+7 = 25 cm
then , its breadth will be = x = 18
I HOPE IT HELPS.
