Question

how many different rectangles can you make with a 24cm long string with integral sides​

Answer 1

Answer:

5 rectangles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the 24cm long strip with this we can make 5 rectangles with these sides of rectangles.

6,6,6,6

7,5,7,5

10,2,10,2

9,3,9,3

8,4,8,4

so we can make 5 rectangles.

Answer 2

Answer:

Let length of are rectangles is X cm

and width of the rectangles is Y cm

=2(x+y) =24

=X+Y =12

Now since X,Y are positive intger and X,Y

Then ,

X=11 =Y=1

X=10 =Y=2

X=9 =Y=3

X=8 =Y=4

X=7 =Y=5

Hence, we get 5such rectangles
