Question

The area of a rectangle is 15 3/8 sq. m. If the length of the rectangle is 4 2/3 m, find the breadth of the rectangle.
Pls step by step information.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle= Length x Breadth

Area= 15 3/8 sq m=123/8 sq m

Length of rectangle= 4 2/3 sq m= 14/3 m

let the breadth of rectangle be a

14/3 x a= 123/8

a= 123/8 x 3/14= 369/112

Breadth of rectangle= 369/112 m

hope it helps

Answer 2

Solution

Area of rectangle = 15 3/8 m² = 123/8m²

Length of the rectangle = 4 2/3m = 14/3m

Breadth of the rectangle = ?

Area of rectangle = l × b

⟹ 123/8 = 14/3 × b

⟹ 123/8 = 14/3b

⟹ b = 123/8 ÷ 14/3

⟹ b = 123/8 × 3/14

⟹ b = 369/112

⟹ b = 3 33/112 m.

Therefore,

Breadth of the rectangle = $\sf3\dfrac{33}{112}$
