Question

The length and breadth of a rectangular field are in the ratio of 5: 3 . if its perimeter is 128 m find the dimensions of the feild

Answer 1

PERIMETER OF RECTANGULAR FIELD = 128 m

128= 2(5x+3x)

128 =2(8x)

128/2 = 8 x

64 = 8 x

64/8= x

8 = x

length = 5x =5*8 = 40

breadth = 3x = 3*8 = 24
