Heya ✋

Let see your answer !!!

Let the length of a rectangle be (x)m. Then,

width of a rectangle = (2x/3)m.

Perimeter = 180m

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l + b)

=> 180 = 2(x + 2x/3)

=> 180/2 = (3x + 2x/3)

=> 90 = 5x/3

=> x = 90 × 3/5

=> x = 54

Hence , the length = 54m

and width = (2 × 54/3)m

= 36m

Thanks :))))

Answer 2

Answer:

Length = 54cm and Breadth = 36cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length and breadth be L and B respectively.

Acc to question,

B = 2L/3

Perimeter = 2(L+B)

180 = 2(L + 2L/3)

90 = 5L/3

270 = 5L

L = 54cm.

B = 2(54)/3 = 36cm
