Answer:
400
Step-by-step explanation:
let the length , breadth = 3x,2x
so 2x + 40 = 3x
hence X= 40
therefore Length = 3 multiplied by 40 = 120
Breadth = 2 multiplied by 40 = 80
Perimeter of Rectangle = 2( l + b)
= 2( 120 + 80 )
= 2(200)
= 400

Answer:
- ratio of length and breadth = 3:2
- Let the length be 3x
- let the breadth be 2x
- breadth is 40 less than length
- equation formed ➡️ 3x - 40 = 2x
➡️ 3x = 2x + 40
➡️ 3x - 2x = 40
➡️ x = 40
Therefore ,
Length = 3x
= 3× 40
= 120 m
Breadth = 2x
= 2×40
= 80 m
Perimeter = 2×(length + breadth )
= 2×(120+80)
= 2× 200 m
= 400 m²
