Question

if the ratio between the length and perimeter of a rectangular field is 1:3 then its length and breadth are in which ratio?

Answer 1

Answer:

2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of length and perimeter of a rectangular field = 1:3

Length = x , perimeter = 3x .

Let, Breadth = y

2(x+y) = 3x

=>2x+2y = 3x

=> 2y = 3x -2x = x

=> y = x/2

Ratio between length and breadth

= x:x/2

= 1:1/2

= 2:1
