Question

The length and breadth of a rectangular field are in the ratio of 3:2.If the perimeter of the field is 80m find its breadth (in meter)​

Answer 1

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2Let length of rectangular field = 3x

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2Let length of rectangular field = 3xBreadth of rectangular field = 2x

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2Let length of rectangular field = 3xBreadth of rectangular field = 2xPerimeter of the field = 80 m

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2Let length of rectangular field = 3xBreadth of rectangular field = 2xPerimeter of the field = 80 m2(l+b)=80

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2Let length of rectangular field = 3xBreadth of rectangular field = 2xPerimeter of the field = 80 m2(l+b)=802(2x+3x)=80

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2Let length of rectangular field = 3xBreadth of rectangular field = 2xPerimeter of the field = 80 m2(l+b)=802(2x+3x)=802×5x=80

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2Let length of rectangular field = 3xBreadth of rectangular field = 2xPerimeter of the field = 80 m2(l+b)=802(2x+3x)=802×5x=80x=8010=8

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2Let length of rectangular field = 3xBreadth of rectangular field = 2xPerimeter of the field = 80 m2(l+b)=802(2x+3x)=802×5x=80x=8010=8then breadth=2x

Since the ratio of length and breadth = 3 : 2Let length of rectangular field = 3xBreadth of rectangular field = 2xPerimeter of the field = 80 m2(l+b)=802(2x+3x)=802×5x=80x=8010=8then breadth=2x=2×8=16m
