Question

The length of a rectangle is twice its breadth. If the perimeter is 72 meter, find the
length and breadth of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

breadth=12

length=24

Step-by-step explanation:

let the breadth be x

length=2x

formula for perimeter=2*(l+b)

72=2*(2x+x)

72=2*(3x)

72=6x

72/6=x

12=x

breadth=x=12

length=2x=12*2=24
