Question

the length of a rectangle is 5cm more than its breadth. if perimeter is 58m. what are the dimensions

Answer 1

Answer:

Length is .17m

Breadth is .12m

Answer 2

Answer:

let,

the breadth be y cm

length be y+5 cm

perimeter is 58m

= 5800cm

we know,

Perimeter= 2(Length+Breadth)

A/Q

2(y+y+5)=5800

or,4y+10=5800

or,y=5800+10/4

or,y= 1447.5

Breadth is 1447.5 cm or 14.475m

Length is 1447.5+5=1452.5 cm or 14.525 m
