Let the ratio of two sides of a parallelogram be 7x and 5x.
Other sides are also 7x and 5x.
Perimeter = 96cm
7x+5x+7x+5x =96cm
24x=96cm
X=96cm/24
X=4cm
Sides of parallelogram = 28cm,20cm,28cm and 20cm

Let the two adjacent sides be 7x and 5x.
Perimeter = 2 (7x + 5x) = 96
→ 24x = 96
→ x = 96/24
x = 4
The adjacent sides are (7 × 4) cm = 28 cm and (5 × 4) cm = 20 cm.
