25 and9 is correct answer
Leukonov:
Sorry.. But From what you gave perimeter would be 25+25+9+9=68 ≠ 64.

Given. Ratio of two sides of a parallelogram=5:3
In a parallelogram Opposite sides are equal.
So Let The length be5x and breadth be 3x
Now 5x+5x+3x+3x=64cm
→16x=64
→x=64/16=4cm
So the length of the parallelogram is 5(4)=20cm
and its Breadth is 3(4)=12cm.
Hope it Helps...
