Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let it be 5x and 3x

2(5x+3x)=144

so, x=9

length = 5*9=45

breadth= 3*9=27

Given :

  • Ratio of length to breadth of a rectangle is 5:3.
  • Perimeter of Rectangle = 144m

To Find :

  • Length and Breadth of Rectangle.

Solution :

\longmapsto\tt{Let\:Length\:be=5x}

\longmapsto\tt{Let\:Breadth\:be=3x}

\longmapsto\tt{Perimeter=144m}

Using Formula :

\longmapsto\tt\boxed{Perimeter\:of\:Rectangle=2(l+b)}

Putting Values :

\longmapsto\tt{144=2(5x+3x)}

\longmapsto\tt{\cancel\dfrac{144}{2}=5x+3x}

\longmapsto\tt{72=8x}

\longmapsto\tt{x=\cancel\dfrac{72}{8}}

\longmapsto\tt\bold{x=9}

So , The value of x is 9..

Therefore :

\longmapsto\tt{Length=5(9)}

\longmapsto\tt\bold{45m}

\longmapsto\tt{Breadth=3(9)}

\longmapsto\tt\bold{27m}

VERIFICATION :

\longmapsto\tt{144=2(l+b)}

\longmapsto\tt{144=2(45+27)}

\longmapsto\tt{144=2(72)}

\longmapsto\tt\bold{144=144}
