Question

the area of a square of side 16cm is the same as that of a rectangle of length 64cm .what is the breadth of the rectangle

Answer 1

Side of square = 16 cm
Length of rectangle = 64 cm


According to question

Area of square = Area of rectangle
=> 16 * 16 = 64 * Width
=> 256 = 64 * Width
=> Width = 4 cm


Width of rectangle = 4cm

Answer 2

given,side of square=16cm

so,its area=16×16=256cm^2

now,it is given that area of square = area of rectangle
and length of rectangle=64cm.


so,length×breadth=256

64×b=256

b=256/64

=4


therefore breadth of rectangle =4cm
