Let the length be x cm.
The breadth = (x/2 + 1) cm.
Perimeter = 2(l+b).
Therefore, measure of sides = 2(x cm + (x/2 + 1) cm) = 62 cm
2(x cm + (x/2 + 1) cm) = 62 cm
2(2x + x + 2/2 cm) = 62cm
2(3x + 2/2 cm) = 62 cm
3x + 2 = 62 cm
3x = 62cm - 2cm
3x = 60 cm
x = 60cm / 3
x = 20 cm
(x/2 + 1) cm
(20/2 + 1) cm
(10 + 1) cm
11 cm
Therefore, The length = 20cm and breadth = 11 cm.
The breadth = (x/2 + 1) cm.
Perimeter = 2(l+b).
Therefore, measure of sides = 2(x cm + (x/2 + 1) cm) = 62 cm
2(x cm + (x/2 + 1) cm) = 62 cm
2(2x + x + 2/2 cm) = 62cm
2(3x + 2/2 cm) = 62 cm
3x + 2 = 62 cm
3x = 62cm - 2cm
3x = 60 cm
x = 60cm / 3
x = 20 cm
(x/2 + 1) cm
(20/2 + 1) cm
(10 + 1) cm
11 cm
Therefore, The length = 20cm and breadth = 11 cm.
