Question

When 5 is subtracted from length and breadth of the rectangle, the perimeter becomes 26’. What is the mathematical form of the statement ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

L + B = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

WK, Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B)

Assume, length = L and breadth = B

Given,

26 = 2 x ((L - 5) + (B - 5))

Therefore, the mathematical expression ⇒ 2(L - 5 + B - 5) = 26

⇒ 2(L + B - 10) = 26

⇒ L + B - 10 = 13

⇒ L + B = 13 + 10 = 23
