Answer:
80m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given-
Perimeter = 280m
length = 20+breadth
To find-
Breadth = ?
Lenght = ?
Solution-
For the breadth,
Let the breadth be b
Since we are given that the length of a rectangular field is 20m more than its breadth.
So, we can say that:
Length = 20+b
The formula of a rectangle is 2(length+breadth)
So, 280 = 2(20+b+b)
= 280 = 2(20+2b)
= 280 = 40+4b
= 280-40 = 4b
= 240 = 4b
= 240 = b
4
= 60 = b
So, breadth is 60m
Therefore, length = 20+b = 20+60 = 80m.
Hence, the lenght of the rectangular field is 80m.
