Step-by-step explanation:
p=24
let breath be x
then lent would be x+2
perimeter of rect. =2(l+b)
24=2(x+2+x)
24=4x+4
20=4x
×=5
hence length=x+2=5+2=7
breath=x=5

The breadth of the rectangle is 5 meters.
Given : Perimeter of a rectangle is 24 meters. If length of a rectangle is 2 meters more than its breadth, then find the breadth of a rectangle.
To find : The breadth of the rectangle.
Solution :
We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to calculate the breadth)
Let, the breadth = x meters
So, the length = (x+2) meters
And, the perimeter = 2 × (length + breadth) = 2 × [x + (x+2)] = (4x + 4) meters
According to the data mentioned in the question,
4x+4 = 24
4x = 24-4
4x = 20
x = 20/4
x = 5
So, the breadth of the rectangle is = x meters = 5 meters
(This will be considered as the final result.)
Hence, the breadth of the rectangle is 5 meters.
