SOLUTION
GIVEN
- The length of a rectangle is 2m less than 3 times its breadth.
- The perimeter of the rectangle is 52 m
TO DETERMINE
The length and breadth.
EVALUATION
Let breadth of the rectangle = b meter
Since the length of a rectangle is 2m less than 3 times its breadth.
Length of the rectangle = ( 3b - 2 ) meter
Now perimeter of the rectangle is 52 m
So by the given condition
2 [ Length + Breadth ] = 52
⇒ Length + Breadth = 26
⇒ 3b - 2 + b = 26
⇒ 4b = 28
⇒ b = 7
The breadth of the rectangle = 7 meter
Length of the rectangle
= ( 3 × 7 - 2 ) meter
= 21 - 2 meter
= 19 meter
FINAL ANSWER
Length of the rectangle = 19 meter
Breadth of the rectangle = 7 meter
