Question

THE LENGTH OF A RECTANGLE IS 3 CM MORE THAN ITS BREADTH.IF THE PERIMTER IS 48 CM , FIND ITS LENGTH AND BREADTH

Answer 1

Answer:

perimeter =88cm

let breadth = x

length = x+3

perimeter =2(l+b)

88= 2(x+3+x)

88= 4x+6

88/4= x-6

22-6=x

x=16

so the breadth x = 16cm

length =x+3=16+3=19cm
