Answer:
- Length = 40 metres
- Breadth = 24 metres
Explanation:
Given,
Ratio of length and breadth of a rectangle is 5 : 3
And its perimeter is 128 metres
We need to find the dimensions of the rectangle.
Lets take the common ratio as ‘x’
Then,
- Length = 5x
- Breadth = 3x
Now,
We know,
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l + b)
Where
- l is length
- And, b is breadth
Then,
= 2(5x + 3x)
But, the perimeter given is 128 metres
According to the question,
⇒ 128 = 2(5x + 3x)
⇒ 128 = 2(8x)
⇒ 128 = 16x
⇒ 128 /16 = x
⇒ 8 = x
Hence, the dimensions are :-
- Length = 5x = 5(8) = 40 metres
- Breadth = 3x = 3(8) = 24 metres
