Question

the area of a rectangle is 22 1/2 m square.If its length is 3 1/5m, what its breadth.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

i have put answer in mixed fraction as area and length are in mixed fraction.................

Answer 2

GIVEN:

• Area of rectangle = 221/2 m²
• Length of rectangle = 31/5 m

TO FIND:

• What is the breadth the rectangle ?

SOLUTION:

Let the breadth of the rectangle be 'b' m

We know that the formula for finding the area of rectangle is:-

$\bf{\star \: Area = Length \times Breadth \: \star}$

According to question:-

$\rm{\dashrightarrow \cancel\dfrac{221}{2} = \cancel\dfrac{31}{5} \times b }$

$\rm{\dashrightarrow 110.5 = 6.2 \times b }$

$\rm{\dashrightarrow b = \cancel\dfrac{110.5}{6.2}}$

$\bf{\dashrightarrow \star \: b = 17.82 \: m \: (approx)\: \star}$

❝ Hence, the breadth of the rectangle is 17.82 m ❞

Put the values in the formula

➠ $\bf{ 110.5 = 6.2 \times 17.82}$

➠ $\bf{ 110.5 = 110.5 \: (approx)}$

$\rm{ [L.H.S. = R.H.S.]}$
