breadth of a rectangle is 5 cm and length is 3 times of its breadth find the perimeter and area
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
a=5
b=3a=3×5 = 15
perimeter =2(a+b)
= 2(5+15)
=2×20
=40 cm
area = ab
=15×5
=75 cm²

Here it is given in the question that the length of a rectangle is 3 times its breadth and its breadth is 5 cm. Now the question has asked us to find out the perimeter and area of the given rectangle.
✧ HOW TO DO:-
To find the perimeter and the area of the given rectangle first of all we need to find its length. So, according to the question the length is 3 times of the breadth. By forming an equation we can find the area and perimeter by putting the values in the formula. Follow the steps to get the answer.

ANSWER:-
⪼ Perimeter of the rectangle is 40 cm.
⪼ Area of the given rectangle is 75 cm².
GIVEN:-
➤ Length of the rectangle = 3 times the breadth
➤ Breadth of the rectangle = 5 cm
TO FIND:-
- Here we have to find out the area and perimeter of the given rectangle.
SOLUTION:-
- First of all we will find the length.
- We have to form an equation.
- Equation = 5 × 3
----------------------
So, let's solve it!
- Finding the length:-
⇝ Length = 5 cm × 3
⇝ Length = 5 cm × 3 = 15
⇝ Length = 15 cm
Thus, the length is 15 cm.
----------------------
- Now, as we got the length we can easily find out the area and perimeter.
- First, we will find the perimeter.
We know that:-
Here:-
- L = 15 cm
- B = 5 cm
----------------------
So, let's solve it!
- Finding the Perimeter:-
⇝ Perimeter = 2(15 cm + 5 cm)
⇝ Perimeter = 2 × 20 cm
⇝ Perimeter = 40 cm
----------------------
- Now let's find the area using its formula.
We know that:-
Here:-
- L = 15 cm
- B = 5 cm
----------------------
So, let's solve it!
- Finding the area:-
⇝ Area = 15 cm × 5 cm
⇝ Area = 15 cm × 5 cm = 75 cm²
⇝ Area = 75 cm²
