Question

Ratio of length an breadth of a rectangle is 3:2. If the length is 5m more than the breadth, find the perimeter of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Answer: 50 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let length be 3x and breadth be 2x

According to the question,

3x= 2x + 5

x=5

Perimeter =2( length+breadth)

=2(3×5+2×5)

=2(25) =50 m

Hope it will help you

Answer 2

⠀✬ Perimeter = 50 m ✬

GIVEN:

• Ratio of the Length and Breadth of a rectangle is 3:2
• The length is 5m more than the breadth.

TO FIND:

• What is the perimeter of the rectangle ?

SOLUTION:

Let the Length and Breadth of the rectangle be 3x and 2x respectively.

✒Now, we have to find the Length and Breadth of the rectangle

According to question :-

➪ Length = Breadth + 5

➪ 3x = 2x + 5

➪ 3x - 2x = 5

➪ x = 5

● Length = 3(5) = 15 m

● Breadth = 2(5) = 10 m

As we know that, the formula for finding the perimeter of rectangle is:-

✫ 2(Length + Breadth) ✫

$\implies$ Perimeter = 2( 15 + 10)m

$\implies$ Perimeter = 2 $\times$ 25

$\implies$ Perimeter = 50 m

❛ Hence, the Perimeter of rectangle is 50 m ❜
