HERE'S YOUR ANSWER
Perimeter of the rectangular field,
P = 2(l+b)
Let, the length and the breadth of the rectangular field be x and y neters respectively.
Acc. to given condition, we have
x = 2y
So, P = 2(2y+y) = 2(3y) = 6y
But, P = 228m
So, 228 = 6y
y = 228/6
Therefore, y = 38m and also by putting the value of y in above equations, we have
x = 76m
Hence, The length of the rectangular field is 76m and its breadth is 38m.
Or we can say that the dimensions of the rectangular field are 76×38 meters.
