Answer 2

Answer:

The length of the field is 113m and breadth of the field is 87m.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Perimeter of a rectangular field = 400m

Length = Breadth + 26

Now,

Let the breadth be 'x' m.

then length = (x + 26)m

We know that,

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B)

where L is length and B is breadth.

So,

2(L + B) = 400

L + B = 400/2

L + B = 200

Putting in the values of L and B.

(x + 26) + x = 200

x + x + 26 = 200

2x + 26 = 200

2x = 200 - 26

2x = 174

x = 174/2

x = 87 m

So,

Breadth = 87 m

Length = x + 26 = 87 + 26 = 113

Length = 113m

Hence,

The length of the field is 113m and breadth of the field is 87m.
