Answers
Solution:
Length of rectangle, L = 5 cm
Breadth of rectangle, B = 3 cm
Perimeter of rectangle, P = 2 * (L + B) = 2 * (5 + 3) = 2 * 8 = 16 cm
Area of rectangle, A = L * B = 5 * 3 = 15 cm²
Ratio of rectangle's perimeter to rectangle's area = P : A = 16 : 15
2️⃣ 16:15 is the correct answer.
Extra Information =>
Rectangle =>
A quadrilateral which has four right angles is a rectangle. It has 4 edges and 4 vertices. Alternate side of a rectangle are equal. The length of diagonals are also equal.
Perimeter =>
The path which surrounds a two-dimensional figure is called perimeter.
Area =>
Area is the space occupied by a surface of an object or by a flat shape.
● This question says that length of a rectangle is 5 cm and it's breadth is 3 cm then we have to find the ratio of it's perimeter to it's area. So it's cleared that which formulas we have to use here !. Let's solve this question !.
● Length of rectangle = 5 cm
● Breadth of rectangle = 3 cm
● The ratio of it's (rectangle) perimeter to it's area.
● The ratio of it's (rectangle) perimeter to it's area = 16:15
● Formula to find area of rectangle.
● Formula to find perimeter of rectangle.
● Area of rectangle = l × b
● Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+b)
~ Let us find area of this rectangle first,
★ Length of rectangle = 5 cm
★ Breadth of rectangle = 3 cm
★ Area of rectangle = l × b
- Area of rectangle = 5 × 3
- Area of rectangle = 15 cm²
~ Let us find perimeter of this rectangle now,
★ Length of rectangle = 5 cm
★ Breadth of rectangle = 3 cm
★ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+b)
- Perimeter of rectangle = 2(5+3)
- Perimeter of rectangle = 2(8)
- Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × 8
- Perimeter of rectangle = 16 cm
~ Not at last let us find the ratio of it's (rectangle) perimeter to it's area
★ Perimeter of rectangle = 16 cm
★ Area of rectangle = 15 cm²
So, perimeter : area
Henceforth, 16:15
