Question

The distance around a rectangular field is 400 meters. The length of the field is 26 meters
more than the breadth. Calculate the length and breadth of the field?
​

Answer 1

Let breadth x then length will be x+26 .

Now given distance around rectangle which is it's

parameter

$\red{p = 2(x + x + 26) = 400} \\ \\ \green{2x + 26 = 200} \\ \\ \pink{x = 87and \: x + 26 = 133}$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find - Length and breadth

Given -

Perimeter = 400 m

Let Breadth of rectangular field be x metres.

So

ATQ

Length of rectangular field = (x + 26) metres

Formula Used - Perimeter of rectangle = 2(Length + Breadth)

Putting values in formula

400 = 2 [(x +26) + x]

⇒ 400 = 2 [2x + 26]

⇒ 400 = 4x + 52

⇒ 4x + 52 = 400

⇒ 4x = 400 - 52 = 348

⇒ x  = $\frac{348}{4}$

⇒ x = 87

Answer -

Breadth = 87 m

Length = 87 + 26 = 113 m
