Here the side of rectangle are in the ratio 9:3
Also, the area of the rectangle is given to be 1728 m².
We have to find length and breadth of the rectangle
Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be 9x and 3x
Then, area of rectangle = length × breadth
1728 = 9x × 3x
1728 = 27 x²
x² = 64
x = 8 m
So, length = 9x
= 9 × 8
= 72 m
breadth = 3x
= 3 × 8
= 24 m
Hence, the length and breadth of the rectangle will be 72 m and 24 m respectively.
