Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The side if the square is 18cm and the area is 324 cm sq. So the area of the rectangle is 324 cm sq. the breadth of the rectangle is area ÷ length and ur answer is 324÷ 27

= 12 cm.

Answer 2

area of a square=side X side=18cm X 18cm=324 cm²

let the breadth of rectangle be 'x'

area of rectangle=length X breadth=(27 cm) X (x)=27x cm²

area of rectangle=area of square

27x cm²=324 cm²

x=324/27

x=12

thus, breadth of rectangle is 12 cm
