Question

The length of a rectangle is 10/3 cm more than its breadth. If its breadth is equal to the side of a square whose perimeter is 24 cm, then the area of a rectangle in square cm will be

Answer 1

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

• length = 10/3 + breadth
• breadth of rectangle = side of square
• perimeter of square = 4(side of square ) = 4(breadth of rectangle )
• 24 = 4 ( breadth)
• ie. breadth = 6
• now length = 10/3 + 6 = 28/3
• now area of rectangle = lengrh × breadth =
• $\frac{28}{3}cm \times 6cm = 56 {cm}^{2}$
