Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is 108 cm. The length of the rectangle is 5/4 of its breadth. What is the breadth of the rectangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

211/4 or 52.75

Step-by-step explanation:

let the breadth of the rectangle be b

perimeter =  2(l+b)

which means

108 = 2(5/4 + b)

108/2 = 5/4 + b

54 = 5/4 + b

54 - 5/4 = b

216/4 - 5/4 = b

211/4 = b

52.75 = b

or

b = 211/4
