Question

Half the perimeter of a rectangular garden, whose length is 4 m more than its width, is 35 m. Find the dimensions of garden

Answer 1

Ans* half perimeter = 35m
so, actual perimeter= 70 m

breadth=x metre
length= 4 m more than breadth =x+4 metre

as per question,

2(length+breadth) = perimeter

2((x+4)+x)=70

2(2x+4)=70

4x+8=70

4x=62

x=62/4

x=15.5

breadth=15.5 metre

length=breadth+4
=15.5+4
=19.5 metre
