Question

The perimeter of the rectangle is 25m and one of its size is 5m how many metre in the other side

Answer 1

Answer:

7.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

total length of all sides (perimeter)

is 25m

length of one side 5m

length of the opposite side 5m

beacause opposite sides of rectangle are eaual

let the other side be x

then its opposite is also x

now

x+x+5+5=25

2x=15

x=7.5

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the rectangle= 25metres

one of its side=5metres

Perimeter of rectangle=2(length+breadth)

25=2(5+b)

25=10+2b

25-10=2b

15=2b

15/2=b

7.5=b

Therefore, the other side is 7.5 metres
