Question

A wire of length 86cm is bent in the from of a rectangle such that its length is 7cmmore than its breadth . find the length and the breadth of rectangle so formed.

Answer 1

Let the length be x.
Breadth will be (x-7).
As per the question,
2(x+x-7) = 86
4x-14= 86
x= 25
Thus, Length = 25 cm, Breadth = 18 cm.
