thanks for asking the question answer is in the picture

Answer 2

The breadth of the garden is 800 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total cost = Rs. 129600

Cost per meter = Rs. 36

So, Perimeter of rectangular garden would be

$\dfrac{129600}{36}=3600$

So, Let the breadth be 'x'.

Let the length be $\dfrac{5}{4}x$

So, According to question, we get that

$2\times (x+\dfrac{5x}{4})=3600\\\\2\times \dfrac{4x+5x}{4}=3600\\\\2\times \dfrac{9x}{4}=3600\\\\18x=3600\times 4\\\\x=800$

Hence, the breadth of the garden is 800 m.
