Question

The length of a rectangle exceeds the breadth by 6cm .if the length is increased by 3cm and breadth is decreased by 2 cm, the area remains the same .find the length and breadth of the rectangle give steps

Answer 1

let x be the length then width will be x-6
when length increased by 3cm then it will be x+3
and width decreased by 2cm then it will be x+
x-6-2= x-8
and we know former area = new are.
so, x(x-6) = x+3(x-8)
x square -6x = x square -5x -24
x= 24

length = 24
width = 24-6= 18

Answer 2
