Question

The perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 3m more than its width is 54 m. Find the length and breadth of the rectangle respectively.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let x be the breadth of rectangle.

Therefore,

Length of rectangle (l)=(x+3)

Perimeter of rectangle =38m

As we know that,

Perimeter of rectangle =2(l+b)

∴2((x+3)+x)=38

⇒2x+3=

2

38

⇒2x=19−3

⇒x=

2

16

=8m

Therefore,

l=x+3=8+3=11m

Hence the length and breadth of rectangle is 11m and 8m respectively.
