Question

The length of a rectangle is 2 1/5 cm and its breadth is 1 4/5 cm. What, in sq. cm, is the area of the rectangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the length of the rectangle be=l

So, breadth is b=l−14

Perimetre= 2(l+b)=2(l+l−14)=180 cm

⟹4l−28=180cm

⟹l=52cm

And, b=52−14=38cm

Hence, Area=l×b=52×38=1976cm

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

l=21/5

b=14/5

A=l×b

A=21/5×14/5

A=294/25

A=11.76sq.cm
