Question

the sides of a parallelogram are in the ratio 3 : 5 . the perimeter of the parallelogram is 480 cm find the length of the sides of the parallelogram

Answer 1

Hey...!!!

Let the ratio be 3x and 5x
Perimeter = 480
So,
2( Length + Breadth) = perimeter
2 ( 3x + 5x) = 480
2 * 8x = 480
16x = 480
X = 480/16
X = 30
So, the sides are ( 3 * 30) = 90 cm
And, ( 5 * 30) = 150 cm
