Question

(iii) The breadth as a fraction of the perimeter of a
rectangle where the ratio of the length to the
breadth of the rectangle is 5:3.​

Answer 1

Answer:

perimeter = 2 x l + b = 2 X 5x + 3x = perimeter = 2 X 8x = perimeter = 16x = perimeter . perimeter = 16 divided by 16 so fraction is x / 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{3}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length and breath of the rectangle be 5 and 3

Let the length and breath of the rectangle be 5 and 3respectively

Then,

Perimeter = 2*(l+b)

= 2(5+3)

= 2*8

= 16

now,

Breath= 3

Perimeter= 16

The answer formed by this equation

$\frac{breath}{perimeter}$

=

$\frac{3}{16}$

Answer=

$\frac{3}{16}$
