Question

The length of a rectangular field exceeds its breadth by 5 m. if the perimeter of the field is 142 m,
Find the dimensions of the field.

Answer 1

Answer:

33,38

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth =X

length 5m exceeds by 5 m = X+5

perimeter =2(L+B)

142=2(x+5+x)

142=4x+10

4x=132

x= 132/4

x=33m

Breadth =33m

Length = x+5= 33+5=38m
