Question

The area of a rectangle is 288 sq.m .If its length is 24 m, what is its breadth​

Answer 1

Answer :-

• The breadth of the rectangle is 12 m.

Given :-

• The area of a rectangle = 288 m².
• It's length is 24 m.

To find :-

• It's breadth.

Step-by-step explanation :-

• In this question, the area and length of a rectangle has been given to us. We have to find it's breadth. Let's do this using the formula required for finding the area of a rectangle.

Calculations :-

We know that :-

$\underline{\boxed{\sf Area \: of \: a \: rectangle = Length \times Breadth.}}$

Here,

• Area = 288 m².
• Length = 24 m.

Let the breadth be b.

-----------------------------

$\underline{\underline{\mathfrak{Substituting\: these \:values\: in\: the \:formula,}}}$

$\boxed{\tt 288 = 24 \times b}$

Transposing 24 from RHS to LHS, changing it's sign,

$\boxed{\tt \dfrac{288}{24} = b}$

Dividing 288 by 24,

$\overline{\boxed{\tt12 \: m = b.}}$

-----------------------------

• Hence, the breadth of the rectangle is 12 m.

Answer 2

Answer :

$\large \sf \implies 12m$

Solution :

Given :

• Area of a rectangle is 288 m².
• Length is 24 m.

To Find :

• Breadth of the rectangle.

We know that,

$\red \bigstar\underline{\boxed{ \tt Area \: of \: a \: rectangle \: = \: Length \times Breadth }}$

Putting the values ,

$\large \sf 288 = 24 \times Breadth \\ \\ \sf\implies Breadth = \frac{288}{24} \\ \\ \implies\sf\underline{ \boxed{\sf Breadth = 12 m}}$

Therefore,

Breadth of Rectangle is 12 m.
