the perimeter of a rectangular shaped parking lot is 420 meters the length is twice the width find both dimensions
Answers
P= 420m
Implies 2(l+b)=420m
l+b=210m
Given that l = 2b
=> l+b = 2b + b = 210m
3b. = 210m
b. = 70m
l = 2b
= 2(70m)
= 140m
Ans) length is 140m, breadth is 70m
Answer:
The length of rectangle is 140 metre and it's breadth is 70 metre
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle is 2 x l + 2 x b i.e. 2 ( l + b )
According to the given condition
l = 2 x b
l = 2b
Now
420 = 2 ( l + b )
420 = 2 ( 2b + b ) ( since l = 2b )
420 = 2 ( 3b )
420 = 6b
b = 420/6
b = 70 metres
Therefore l = 2b
= 2 x 70
= 140 metres
The length of rectangle is 140 metre and it's breadth is 70 metre
