5. The length of a rectangle is 4 times the breadth. If the perimeter is 125 m, find the length
and breadth of the rectangle.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The length and breadth of the rectangle are 50m and 12.5m resectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Let breadth of the rectangle be x

Then the length of the rectangle would be 4x

The perimeter of the rectangle is given as 125m

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2×(l+b),

where l= length and b= breadth

Therefore in this case,

125 = 2 × (4x + x)

      = 2 × 5x

125 = 10x

∴ x = 125 ÷ 10 = 12.5m

and 4x = 12.5 ×  = 50m

Hence the length and breadth of the rectangle are 50m and 12.5m respectively.
