Question

The length of a rectangle is 6 metres more than ots breadth.the perimeter of the rectangle is 60 metres.find its length and breadth

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

let the breadth be 'x' meter

so the length will be (6+ x)m

perimeter = 60 m

2(6+x+x)=60

2 (6+2x)=60

12+4x=60

4x=60-12=48

x=48/4=12

so, the breadth is 12 m

the length is 12+6=18 m

hope it help you :)

Answer 2

Answer:

The length is 18m and breadth is 12m.

Explanation:

Let the breadth of the rectangle be x m

Therefore, the length of the rectangle = 6 + x m.

Perimeter of rectangle = 2( l + b)

Therefore, 2( 6 + x+ x)

Thus, 2(6+2x) = 60

Substiuting we get,

x = 12m = breadth.

Therefore, length = 18cm
