Question

The length of a rectangle is 5 cm more than its breadth. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 40cm. Find the length and breadth of the rectangle. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

5cm×40=??

.................................

Answer 2

Explanation:

Let the breadth be x

Then length=(x+5)

We know that,

Perimeter of rectangle=2(l+b)

40=2((x+5)+5)

40=2(x+5+5)

40=2(x+10)

40=2x+20

40-20=2x

20=2x

x=20/2

x=10

Therefore, length =(x+5)=(10+5)=15

and Breadth=x=10
