Answer:
LET LENGTH BE 7X AND BREADTH 3X
PERIMETER = 2 ( L + B)
80 = 2 ( 7X + 3X )
80 = 2 × 10X
80 = 20X
X = 80/20 = 4
LENGTH = 4 × 7 = 28 cm
BREADTH = 4 × 3 = 12 cm
hope it helps...

The correct answer is length = 28 cm and breadth = 12 cm.
Given: Ratio of length and breadth = 7:3.
Perimeter = 80 cm.
To Find: Length and breadth.
Solution:
Ratio of length and breadth = 7:3.
Let the length = 7x
Let the breadth = 3x
Perimeter = 2(l + b)
80 = 2(l + b)
80 = 2(7x + 3x)
40 = 10x
x = 4
Length = 7x = 7 x 4 = 28 cm.
Breadth = 3x = 3 x 4 = 12 cm
Hence, the length = 28 cm and breadth = 12 cm.
