Question

The length of rectangle is 5cm greater than breadth if length is x cm then its breadth is

Answer 1

Solution :-

Let the breadth of the rectangle be xcm

Then it's length = x + 5cm

Perimeter = 2(length + breadth)

➞ 70 = 2(x + (x + 5))

➞ 70/2

➞ 2x + 5

➞ 2x + 5 = 35

➞ 2x = 35 - 5 = 30

➞ x= 30/2

➞ 15cm

Breadth = x = 15cm

Length = x + 5 = 15 + 5 = 20cm
