Question

The length of a rectangular field is four times its breadth. If the perimeter of the field is 60m. Find its length and breadth.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a.q.

l=4b

perimeter=2(l+b)

60=2(4b+b)

30=5b

6m=b

l=4b

=4×6=24m

Answer 2

Answer:

The breadth is 6 m and length is 24 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Length = 4 times the breadth

Perimeter = 60 m

To find :

Length and breadth

Solution :

Let the -

• Breadth be y
• Length be 4y

★ Perimeter = 2(Length + Breadth)

⇒ 2(4y + y) = 60

⇒ 8y + 2y = 60

⇒ 10y = 60

⇒ y = 60/10

⇒ y = 6

Breadth = 6 m

★ Length =

⇒ 4(6)

⇒ 24

Length = 24 m

Therefore, the breadth is 6 m and length is 24 m.
