Question

the area of a square of side 18 cm is the same as that of a rectangle of lenght 27 cm. what is the breadth of the rectangle?​

Answer 1

Answer:

12 cm is the breadth of the rectangle .

Step-by-step explanation:

• area of square = Side × Side
• side of square = 18 cm
• =18×18 = 324 sq. cm
• area of rectangle = length × breadth
• length of rectangle = 27 cm
• let the breadth of rectangle be 'x'
• so, 27 × x = 324 sq. cm (because the 0f both the figures is same)
• so , we do the reverse operation to find the value of 'x' = 324 ÷ 27 = 12 cm
• So , the breadth of the rectangle is 12 cm .
