​

Answer 1

Answer:

length of rectangle is 14m

Answer 2

To find : length of rectangle.

Given : area = $288 \ m^{2}$ and breadth = $12\ m$

Solution :

• According to question we are given that area and breadth of rectangle are $288 \ m^{2}$  and $12\ m$ respectively. We have to find length of rectangle.

• To find length we use following formula -

        Area of rectangle $=l \times b$

• Substituting the values we get,

        $288 =l\times 12\\l = \frac{288}{12} \\l = 24\ m$

Hence, length of rectangle is $24\ m$ .
