Answer:

Length =5:3

suppose the length and width of the field be 5xm and 3xm respectively

Width =42m

3x=42

x= 42/3

=14

∴length=5x=5×14=70m

Answer:

2.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio = 5:3

Thus, Length = 5x

Width = 3x

Perimeter (given) = 8m

→ Perimeter = 2(l+b)

→ 8 = 2(5x+3x)

→ 4 = 8x

→ x = 1/2

Length = 5x = 5/2 = 2.5 m
