let the length and breadth be 2x and 3x.
perimeter = 2( l+b )
50 = 2(2x+3x)
25 =5x
x= 5
hence the length and breadth are 10cm and 15cm

hi dear,
Good Morning..
Here is ur answer :-
Given :-
Perimeter :- 50 cm
ratio of length and breadth :- 2:3
Answer:-
let the length and breadth be :- 2x & 3x
=> Perimeter of Rectangle :- 2( l+b )
:. Perimeter = 2( 2x+3x )
50 = 2( 5x )
50 = 10x
x = 50/10
:. x = 5
length = 2x = 2(5) = 10 cm
breadth = 3x = 3(5) = 15 cm
hope it helps......
