Question

Half the perimeter of a rectangular garden, whose length is 4 m more than its width is
36 m. Find the dimensions of the garden.

Answer 1

Answer:

L= 40

B=36

Perimeter = 2×(l+b)

= 2×76

= 152

Answer 2

Answer:

The Length is 16 meter and the Breadth is 20 meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Half the perimeter of a rectangular garden = 36 meter

According to this:

2(l+b)/2=36

l+b=36 ……….Equation 1

Length is 4 meter more than the breadth.

Framing Equation:

Let width be x

Length be x+4

Substituting this in Equation(1):

x+x+4=36

2x+4=36

2x=32

x=16

Width is 16 meter

Finding Length:

Length is 16+4 = 20 meter

Therefore the Length is 16 meter and the Breadth is 20 meter.
