Question

Perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 157m it's length is 2m more than twice of the breadth what are the length and breadth of the pool

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth be 'x'

Length = 2 + 2x

Now perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l + b)

2(l + b) = 154

2 ( 2 + 2x + x) = 154

2 ( 2 + 3x) = 154

2 + 3x = 77

3x = 75

x = 25 m

Required breadth = 25 m

Length = 2 + 2 x 25 = 52m

hope i helped!
