Question

If perimeter of a rectangular field is 240 m and breadth and length are in the ratio 3:2

Answer 1

1. Answer:  Step-by-step explanation: Let the breadth and length be 3x and 2x respectively. Perimeter of the rectangular field=2×(l+b) 240m=2×(3x+2x) 240m =2×(5x) 240m=10x 240÷10=X X=24  Therefore, breadth=3×24=72m                    length=2×24m=48m Area=length×breadth         = 72×48          =3456square metres
