Correct Question:-
The length of a rectangle is three times it's breadth. If the area of the rectangle is 1875 m² , find its perimeter.
Answer:-
Let the breadth of the rectangle be x m.
Given:
Length is three times the breadth = 3 * x = 3x m.
And,
Area of the rectangle = 1875 m²
We know that,
Area of a rectangle = length * breadth.
Hence,
→ 1875 = (3x) * (x)
→ 1875 = 3x²
→ 1875/3 = x²
→ 625 = x²
→ √625 = x
→ 25 m = x
→ Breadth of the rectangle (x) = 25 m
→ Length of the rectangle (3x) = 3*25 = 75 m.
We know,
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + breadth)
→ Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(75 + 25)
→ Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(100)
→ Perimeter of the rectangle = 200 m
Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 200 m.
