Answer:
LENGTH OF THE SWIMMING POOL IS 25cm AND BREADTH OF THE SWIMMING POOL IS 10cm
Step-by-step explanation:
LET THE BREADTH OF SWIMMING POOL BE 'x'cm.
THEREFORE, LENGTH OF THE SWIMMING POOL =(5÷2×x)cm
=2.5cm
PERIMETER OF THE SWIMMING POOL = 7O cm.
BUT, PERIMETER = 2× (LENGTH +BREADTH)
=2×(2.5x+x)
=2×(3.5x)
PERIMETER =7x cm
PUTTING THE VALUE OF PERIMETER:
70 = 7x
x=70÷7
x=10
LENGTH = 2.5x
=2.5×10
=25cm
BREADTH =x
=10cm
