perimeter of a rectangle plot is 860m.its length is 4 more than its breadth.find its length and breadth.
Answers
✬ Length = 217 m ✬
✬ Breadth = 213 m ✬
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Perimeter of rectangular plot is 860 m.
- Length of plot is 4 more than breadth.
To Find:
- What is the length and breadth of plot ?
Solution: Let the breadth of plot be x m. Therefore,
➟ Length of plot = 4 more than x
➟ Length = (x + 4) m
As we know that
★ Perimeter of Rectangle = 2(Length + Breadth) ★
A/q
- Perimeter is 860 m.
860 = 2(Length + Breadth)
860 = 2(x + 4 + x)
860 = 2(2x + 4)
860 = 4x + 8
860 – 8 = 4x
852 = 4x
852/4 = x
213 = x
So, measure of
➭ Breadh is x = 213 m
➭ Length is x + 4 = 213 + 4 = 217 m

★ Verification ★
➧ 2(213 + 217) = 860
➧ 2(430) = 860
➧ 860 = 860
Given ,
The perimeter of a rectangle plot is 860 m
The length of rectangle is 4 more than its breadth
Let ,
- Breadth of rectangle be " x "
- Then , length = " x + 4 "
We know that , the perimeter of rectangle is given by
Thus ,
860 = 2(x + 4 + x)
430 = 2x + 4
426 = 2x
x = 426/2
x = 213 m
The length and breadth of rectangle are 217 m and 213 m
