Answer:
Length = 60cm
Breadth = 80cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sides of rectangle be 6x and 8x respectively.
Perimeter of rectangle = 280cm
A/Q
2(6x+8x)= 280
2*14x = 280
28x = 280
x = 280 / 28
x = 10
Therefore, length of rectangle = 6 * 10
= 60cm
Therefore, breadth of rectangle = 8 * 10
= 80cm

Answer:
Length = 60 cm, breadth = 80 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Length:breadth = 6:8 = 6x:8x
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + breadth) = 280
2(6x + 8x) = 280
14x = 280/2
x = 140/14
= 10 cm.
Length = 6x = 6 * 10 = 60 cm.
Breadth = 8x = 8 * 10 = 80 cm.
