Question

Q.1 The sides of a rectangular field are in the ratio 9:7 and its perimeter
is 144 metres. Find the sides

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the length and breadth be 9x and 7x

perimeter = 144m (given)

perimeter = 2(l+b)

144 = 2(9x + 7x)

144/2 = 16x

72 = 16x

x = 72/16

x = 4.5

Answer 2

Answer:

Length = 40.5 meters

Breadth = 31.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides are in the ratio = 9:7

Perimeter = 2 ( length + breadth)

perimeter = 2 ( 9x + 7x)

144 = 2 (16x)

72 = 16x

x = 4.5

Length = 9 x 4.5 =40.5 meters

breadth = 7 x 4.5 = 31.5 meters
