the length and breadth of a rectangle are in the ratio 13:7, if area of a rectangle is 2275cmsq. Find its length and breadth.
Answers
Let the length be 13x and breadth be 7x.
Area of rectangle = 2275 cm²
By formula,
Area of rectangle =l×b
2275=13x×7x
2275=91x²
x²=2275/91=25
x=5
Length=13x=13×5=65
Breadth=7x=7×5=35

Given, ratio of length and breadth of the rectangle 13 : 7 .
area of the rectangle = 2275 cm^2
Let,
length of the rectangle = 13 a
breadth of the rectangle = 7 a
We know that the area of rectangle is length x breadth
Therefore, 13 a x 7 a = 2275 cm^2
= > 13 x 7 x a x a = 2275 cm^2
= > 91 a^2 = 2275 cm^2
= > a^2 = 2275 / 91 cm^2
= > a^2 = ( 25cm )^2
= > a = 5 cm
Now,
Length of the rectangle = 13a
= 13 x 5 cm
= 65 cm
Breadth of the rectangle = 7a
= 7 x 5 cm
= 35 cm
Thus,
length of the rectangle is 65 cm and breadth of the rectangle is 35 cm
