Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
PERIMETER=960/24
PERIMETER=40M
P=2*(L+b)
40=2*(5X+3X)
40=2*8X
40=16X
X=40/16
X=2.5M
LENGTH=5*2.5=12.5M
BREADTH=3*2.5=7.5M
AREA=L*B
12.5M*7.5M
AREA=93.75M^2...

Length and the breadth of a rectangle are of the ratio 5:3
Cost of fencing is ₹24 per m
Total cost = 9000
Length & Breadth of the rectangle
Solution
Let,
Length = 5x
Breadth = 3x
✭ Perimeter
→ Perimeter = Total Cost/Cost per m
→ Perimeter = 9000/24
→ Perimeter = 400 m
✭ Finding x
→ Perimeter = 2(l+b)
→ 400 = 2(5x+3x)
→ 400/2 = 8x
→ 200 = 8x
→ 200/8 = x
→ x = 25
✭ Length and Breadth
→ Length = 5x = 5×25 = 125 m
→ Breadth = 3x = 3×25 = 75 m
