Question

The length of a rectangle is three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 96m, find the length and breadth of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the length of the rectangle be x

Breadth =

3

x

Perimeter = 56 m

2(l+b) = 56 m

l+b = 28 m

x+

3

x

= 28 m

4x = 80 m

x = 21 m

length = 21 m Breadth = 7 m
