Question

The length and the breadth of a rectangle are in the ratio 2 : 1. If its perimeter is 93 cm then find its length and breadth

Answer 1

solved below,

Step-by-step explanation:

let the length and breadth be 2x and x respectively

given is- perimeter= 2(length +breadth) = 93cm

2(2x+x)= 93

6x= 93cm

x= 15.5cm

length = 2x15.5= 31cm

breadth= x= 15.5cm

Answer 2

Here the ratio of length and breadth is given to be 2:1

Also, the perimeter is 93 cm

We have to find the value of length and breadth

Let the length and breadth be 2x and x respectively

So, perimeter = 2 ( length + breadth )

93 = 2 ( 2x + x )

93 = 6x

x = 15.5

So, 2x = 2× 15.5

= 31

x =15.5

Hence, the length and breadth will be 31 cm and 15.5 cm respectively
