Answer:
The length of a rectangle is 7/5 of its breadth, if its perimeter is 48 cms, then what is its length?
Let breadth be x
Length=7/5 *x=7x/5
perimeter of rectangle=2(l+b)=2(7x/5+x)
given,perimeter=48cms
2(7x/5+x)=48
7x/5+x=48/2=24
(7x+5x)/5=24
12x/5=24
x=24×5/12
x=10cms i.e., breadth=10cms
length=7*x/5=7×10/5=14 cms
