Answer:
length=25m
breadth=20m
Step-by-step explanation:
length= b+5
breadth=b
perimeter=90
2(l+b)=perimeter of rectangle
2(b+5+b)=90
2(2b+5)=90
4b+10=90
4b=90-10
4b=80
b=80/4
b=20
l= b+5
l=20+5=25

Given:
• Perimeter = 90m
Supposition:
• Let breadth of the rectangle is X
• Then length will be = x + 5
Formula:
• Perimeter = 2(Length + Breadth)
Solution:
• Put values in formula
• 90 = 2{(x+5) + x}
• 90 = 2{x+5+x}
• 90 = 2{2x+5}
• 90/2 = 2x + 5
• 45 = 2x + 5
• 45 - 5 = 2x
• 40 = 2x
• 40/2 = x
• 20 = x
• Or
• x = 20
Breadth:
• As breadth is x. And x=20
• So breadth = 20m
Length:
• As length = x + 5
• By putting value of x
• length = 20 + 5
• length = 25m
