Question

The length and breadth of a rectangular field are in the ratio 5: 4. If its perimeter is
108 m. find the dimensions of the field.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, length= 5x

5x= 108

x= 108/5= 21.6

Breadth= 4x

4x= 108

x= 108/4= 27

Perimeter of rectangular field = 2(l+b)

108                       =                       2(21.6+27)

108                       =                         2(48.6)

108                       =                         2*48.6

108                        =                        97.2

108/97.2= 1.111...
