Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is 16 cm and its length is 2cm more than the breadth.what are its length and breadth?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Length = 5

Breadth = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 16cm

Breadth = x

Length = x+2

Perimeter = 2x + 2(x+2) = 16

                = 2x + 2x + 4 = 16

                = 4x + 4 = 16

                = 4x = 16 - 4

                 = 4x = 12

                 = x = 12/4

                 = x = 3

Breadth = 3

Length = 3 + 2 = 5

(3x2) + (5x2)

6 + 10

16
