Question

the length of a rectanglular field is twice its breadth .if the perimeter of the field is 48 m.then find its breadth​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Breadth of the rectangular field is 8 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Breadth be 'x',

So, the length will be 2x,

Area of a Rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)

48 = 2 (2x + x)

48 = 2 × 3x

$\frac{48}{2} = 3x \\ 24 = 3x \\ x = \frac{24}{3} \\ x = 8$

Therefore, the breadth of the rectangular field is 8 meters.

Length = 2x = 2 × 8 = 16 meters.

Verification:

Area of a Rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)

48 = 2 (16 + 8)

48 = 2 × 24

48 = 48

LHS = RHS

Hence, breadth of the rectangular field is 8 meters.
