the length and breadth of rectangular park in the ratio 5:3 and it's perimeter is 128 m Find the area of park
Answers
Answer:
here
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the common factor be x
The ration of l:b=5;3
So the length is 5x
The breadth is 3x
The perimeter is 2(l+b)=128
5x+3x=64
8x=64
x=8
So the length is 5(8)=40
The breadth is 3(8)=24
The area is 40×24=960cm

ANSWER :-
- Area of rectangular park is 960m².
GIVEN :-
- Lenthg and Breadth of a rectangular park is in ratio 5:3.
- Perimeter of the rectangular park is 128m.
TO FIND :-
- Area of the rectangular park.
TO KNOW :-
★ Perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( l + b )
★ Area of rectangle = l × b
Here ,
- l is length of rectangular park.
- b is breadth of rectangular park.
SOLUTION :-
Let the length and breadth of the rectangular park be 5x and 3x respectively as ratio is 5:3.
And Perimeter of rectangular park is 128m.
We know ,
Perimeter = 2 ( l + b )
Putting values ,
→ 128 = 2 ( 5x + 3x )
→ 128 = 2 ( 8x )
→ 128 = 16x
→ x = 128/16
→ x = 8
Hence ,
- Length = 5x = 5(8) = 40m
- Breadth = 3x = 3(8) = 24m
Hence , length is 40m and breadth is 24m.
Now ,
→ Area of rectangular park = l × b
→ Area of rectangular park = 40 × 24
→ Area of rectangular park = 960m²
Hence , area of rectangular park is 960m².
