The perimeter of a rectangular field is 48m.if its length is 12 m more than the breadth ,find leangth and breadth of the rectunglar field.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the breadth be = x metre
Then, length = x+12 metre
2(x+x+12) = 48
=>2(2x+12) = 48
=>4x+24 = 48
=>4x = 48-24
=>4x = 24
=>x = 24/4
=>x = 6 metre
Breadth = x = 6 metre
Length = x+12 = 18 metre

Given:
- The perimeter of a rectangular field is 48m.
- length is 12 m more than the breadth.
To find out:
Find leangth and breadth of the rectunglar field.
Formula used:
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( length + breadth )
Solution:
Let the breadth be x.
Then, length = ( x + 12 ) m
According to the question,
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( length + breadth )
★ Substituting the values in the above formula,we get:
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 { ( x + 12 ) + ( x ) }
⇒ 48 = 2 { 2x + 12 }
⇒ 2x + 12 = 48/2
⇒ 2x + 12 = 24
⇒ 2x = 24 - 12
⇒ 2x = 12
⇒ x = 6 m
★ Breadth,b = x = 6 m
★ Length,l = x + 12 = 6 + 12 = 18 m
