given 2(l+b)=750
l+b=375
l=b+5
l-b=5
solving the above equations
l=190
b=185
l+b=375
l=b+5
l-b=5
solving the above equations
l=190
b=185

perimeter = 750 m
Let the length be l
given that l - b = 5
therefore b = l - 5
we know ,
perimeter = 2(l+b)
=> 750 = 2[l+(l-5)]
=> 750 = 2(2l - 5)
=> 750 = 4l - 10
=> 750+10 = 4l
=> 760/4 = l
= 190 m
therefore , length is 190 m
breadth = length - 5
= 190 - 5
= 185 m
Let the length be l
given that l - b = 5
therefore b = l - 5
we know ,
perimeter = 2(l+b)
=> 750 = 2[l+(l-5)]
=> 750 = 2(2l - 5)
=> 750 = 4l - 10
=> 750+10 = 4l
=> 760/4 = l
= 190 m
therefore , length is 190 m
breadth = length - 5
= 190 - 5
= 185 m
