Question

The measure of two adjecent sides of a rectangle are in ratio5:3.If the perimeter of a rectangle is 80 m ,find its length and breadth.

Answer 1

Let the length be 5x
Then breadth= 3x
Perimeter of rectangle= 2(l+b)
→2(5x+3x) = 80
→2*8x= 80
→x= 80/16
→x= 5m

Length = 5*5= 25m

Breadth= 3*5= 15m

Answer 2

let the length be 5x
and breadth be 3x
ATQ
2(5x + 3x) = 80
5x + 3x = 40
8x = 40
x = 40/8 = 5
length = 5x = 5(5) = 25m
breadth = 3x = 3(5) = 15m
