Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Length of rectangle = 4 × Breadth
- Perimeter = 40 cm
To find:
- Length and breadth = ?
Let
♦ Length be l
♦ Breadth be b
Solution:
Applying perimeter formula,
Perimeter = 2 (l + b)
⇒ 40 = 2 (4b + b)
⇒ 40 = 2 (5b)
⇒ 40 ÷ 2 = 5b
⇒ 20 = 5b
⇒ b = 20 ÷ 5
⇒ b = 4 cm
∴ Breadth = 4 cm
For finding the length of the rectangle,
Length = 4 × Breadth
➝ Length = 4 × 4
➝ Length = 16 cm
∴ Length = 16 cm
VERIFICATION:
Perimeter = 2 (l + b)
→ Perimeter = 2 (4 + 16)
→ 40 = 2 (20)
→ 40 = 40
