Question

The length of a rectangle is double its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 144m. Find it’s area

Answer 1

Answer:

Here's your answer》》》》》》》

Step-by-step explanation:

let length be 2x

let breadth be x

Perimeter = 2 (length + breadth)

144 = 2 (2x + x)

144/2 = 3x

72 = 3x

Therefore x = 72/3 = 24

so, length = 2x = 48 m

breadth = x = 24 m

now,

Area = length × breadth

Area = 48 × 24 = 1152

Answer = 1152 square metres....
