Question

The length of a rectangle is two times its breadth.If its perimeter is 1.5m.Find its length, breadth and area.

Answer 1

LET BREADTH BE x

THEN LENGTH BE 2x

PERIMETER = 2(L+B)

1.5=2X3x

1.5=6x

x=1.5/6=0.25

LENGTH=2x=2x0.25=0.5

BREADTH=0.25

AREA=LXB

=====0.5x0.25=0.125 METRE SQUARE
