Question

The length of a rectangular field is three times its width. If the perimeter of the field is 24m. Then the area of the same is

Answer 1

Answer:

The easier calculation is

Area=3%2824%2F8%29%5E2 --> Area=3%283%29%5E2 --> Area=3%2A9 --> highlight%28Area=27%29 (in square meters) or highlight%28Area=27m%5E2%29

Answer 2

$\LARGE{\underline{\red{\sf{SolutioN :}}}}$

GivEn :

Length = 3x

Width = x

Perimeter = 24m

To finD :

The width of the rectangular field.

Steps :

We have one particular formula to find the perimeter of rectangle, and will use that only to find the width.

Formula : 2 ( length + breadth )

Substituting Given Values :

Perimeter = 2 ( l + b )

24 = 2 ( 3x + x )

24 = 2 × 4x

24 = 8x

x = 24 / 8

x = 3

Therefore, the width of a rectangular field is equals to 3m.
