Answer:
200m is the length
Step-by-step explanation:
l = 2b
5 x Perimeter = 3000m (3km)
5 x 2 ( l + b) = 10 x ( 2b + b) = 3000
3b = 3000/ 10= 300
b = 300/3 = 100m
Breadth= 100m
Therefore length is 2x100= 200m

Answer:
Here,
- Let the breadth be x
[ Now , according to question ⤵]
- So , the length will be 2x
- Its given she jogged 5 times of the field n in overall covered a distance of 3Km
- Therefore, perimeter will be 3Km /5 OR 3000m /5
Now ,
We use the formula of perimeter to find the length and the breadth ;
Perimeter = 2 × ( length + Breadth )
3000/5 = 2 × ( 2x + x )
600 = 4x + 2x
600 = 6x
x = 600/6
x = 100
Hence ,
- We assumed breadth as x ,so breadth = 100m
- We assumed length as 2x , so length = ( 2 × 100) => 200 m
Therefore , the Length is 200 m and the breadth is 100 m.
