Answer:
length of original rectangle: 24m
breadth of original rectangle: 20m
Explanation:
Let the length of original rectangle be l
and breadth of the original rectangle be b.
so, according to the first statement given in the question,
(l + 6)(b -4) = l×b
lb - 4l +6b - 24 = lb
[lb cancels out]
- 4l +6b - 24 = 0
2l +3b - 12 = 0_________(1)
so, according to the first statement given in the question,
(l + 8)(b -5) = l×b
lb - 5l +8b - 40 = lb
[lb cancels out]
- 5l +8b - 40 = 0
5l -8b + 40 = 0_________(2)
By elimination method,
eq(1) × 5 - eq(2) × 2
10l - 15b +60 =0
10l - 16b +80 =0
(-) (+) (-)
______________
b -20 =0
b = 20.........putting in (1)
2l +3×20 - 12 = 0
l = 24
