Answer:
Let's assume the breadth as x meters
So, the length as (x + 3) meters
According to Question,
Perimeter of Rectangular plot = 90m
2(length + breadth) = 90 m
✒ 2(x + 3 + x) = 90
✒2x + 3 = 90 / 2
✒ 2x + 3 = 45
✒ 2x = 45 - 3
✒ 2x = 42
✒ x = 42 / 2
✒ x = 21
- Breadth = x = 21 m
- Length = x + 3 = 21+ 3 = 24 m
- Hence, the length and breadth of the rectangular plot are 24 meters and 21 meters respectively
