Question

The perimeter of a rectangular plot of land is 240m and its length is 63m. Find the breadth and area of the plot

Answer 1

breadth of rectangular plot is 57
area of plot is 63×57=3591

Answer 2

Answer:

The breadth is 57 m and area of the plot is 3591 m².

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the rectangular plot = 63 m

Let the breadth be 'b' m

Given, the perimeter of the rectangular plot of land = 240 m

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + breadth)

2(63 + b) = 240

63 + b = 240/2

63 + b = 120

b = 120 - 63

b = 57 m

∴ The breadth of the rectangular plot is 57 m.

Area of the rectangle = length × breadth

 = 63 m × 57 m

 = 3591 m²

∴ The area of the plot is 3591 m².
