Question

The length and breadth of a rectangular field is in the ratio of 5:6. If its

perimeter is 880m, find its dimensions.​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the length and breadth be 5x and 6x respectively.

2(l+b)= perimeter of rectangle

2(5x+6x) = 880

2×11x=880

22x= 880

x= 880/22= 40

length= 5×40 m= 200 m

breadth= 6×40 m 240 m
