hi there!!
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the breadth (b) be x m.
hence,
the length (l) would be x+5 m.
now,
according to the formula,
Perimeter of a rectangular garden=
2( l+b) m
substituting the values in the formula,
90= 2( x+5+x)
90= 2( 2x+5)
90= 4x+10
90-10= 4x
80= 4x
80/4= x
20= x
hence
the breadth= 20 m
therefore,
the length= x+5= 20+5= 25m
hope this helps!! ♥♥♥

Answer :-
Explanation :-
Given :
- Length of the garden = 5 m more than width
- Perimeter of the garden = 90 m
To find :
The length of the school garden
Solution :
Let the width be 'x' m
and the length be '(x + 5)' m
We know that,
Perimeter = 2(length + breadth)
=> Perimeter = 90 m
=> 2 {x + (x + 5)} = 90
=> 2 {x + x + 5} = 90
=> 2 {2x + 5} = 90
=> 4x + 10 = 90
=> 4x = 90 - 10
=> 4x = 80
=> x = 80/4
=> x = 20
Hence, the value of x is 20
Therefore,
The width => x = 20m
The length => (x + 5) = 20 + 5 = 25m
