Answer:
Given - perimeter = 154
Length = 2m
TO find - Length and breadth of swimming pool
FOrmula using = 2(l+b)
Solution -Let the breadth be x
Length = 2+2x
we know that perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+b)
= 2(l+b ) = 154
= 2(2+2x+x )= 154
= 2+3x= 77
= 3x =75
= x = 25
Length =25
Breadth = 52
Hope it is helpful for you

Given :
- Perimeter = 154m
____________________________
To Find :
- Length and the breadth
____________________________
Solution :
Let x be the measure of the breadth
According to the question :
→ Length = 2x + 2
2(length + breadth) = Perimeter of the rectangle
⇒ 2 {(2x+2) + x} = 154m
⇒ 2(2x + 2 + x) = 154m
⇒ 2(3x + 2) = 154m
⇒ 6x + 4 = 154m
⇒ 6x = 154m - 4
⇒ x = 150/6
⇒ x = 25m
Finding out length and breadth :
→ L = 2x+2 = 52
→ B = x → 25
∴ Length of rectangle is 52 m and breadth is 25 m
