Question

The length of a rectangular field is 6 times its breadth. If the perimeter of the field is 280 m, find the length and breadth of the field.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let it's breadth be b metres

length= 6b

perimeter=280m

perimeter of rectangle=2 (a+b)

2 (a+b)=280

2 (b+6b)=280

7b×2=280

b=20 m

breadth= 20m

length= 120m
