Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Rectangle
Solve for length
l=P
2﹣w
w Width
Enter value
P Perimeter
Let the width of rectangle=x
Then length of the rectangle = 3x
Perimeter of the rectangle = 96cm
2(l+b) = 96m
X+3x = 48
x = 12cm
Breadth of rectangle = 12cm
Length of rectangle = 3×12=36cm

Answer:
Length is 36m
width is 12m
Given:
- Perimeter of the rectangle - 96m
- Length is 3 times its width.
To Find:
- Length of the rectangle
- Width of the rectangle.
Solution:
Let the length of the rectangle = a
Let the width of the rectangle = b
According to the question:
⟹ a = 3b ...( 1 )
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2( length + width )
⟹ 96 m = 2( a + b )
From ( 1 )
⟹ 96 m = 2( 3b + b )
⟹ 96 m = 2( 4b )
⟹ 96 m = 8b
⟹ 96 m / 8 = b
⟹ 12 m = b
Length = 3b = 3(12) = 36m
Width = b = 12m
