Question

The perimeter of a recctangular plot of land is 240m and its lenth is 63m .find the breadth and area of the plot .

Answer 1

Given: Perimeter is 240m and length is 63m

To find: Breadth and area of the plot.

Answer:

Formula to find the perimeter: 2(l + b)

Perimeter is 240m

Let the breadth be b

Length is 63m

Substituting the given values in the formula:

240 = 2(63 + b)

240 = 126 + 2b

2b = 240 - 126

2b = 114

b = 114/2

b = 57

Breadth is 57m

Now that we know the breadth and length, let's find the area.

Formula to find the area: l*b

Length is 63m

Breadth is 57m

Therefore area = 63*57 = 3591m^2

Hope it helps :)
