Question

The perimeter of a farm is 187.2 m. If its width is 39m, then find the
ratio between its length and width.​

Answer 1

Answer:

18.2 : 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a farm is 187.2 m. If its width is 39m, then find the

ratio between its length and width.Perimeter of a farm = 187.2m

Width of the farm = 39m

Length of the farm = x

Perimeter of a rectangle

= 2(l+b)

= 2(x+39)

= 2x + 78

187.2 = 2x + 78

187.2 - 78 = 2x

109.2 / 2 = x

54.6 = x

Ratio = 54.6 : 39

= 18.2 : 13
