Solution

Given dimension of rectangular box:
height $= h c m$
length is $5$ times its height.
So, length $= 5 \times h = 5 h c m$
Similarly, breadth is $10 c m$ less than its length.
So, breadth $=$ length $- 10$
Thus, breadth $= 5 h - 10 c m$
Therefore, length $= 5 h c m$ and breadth $= 5 h - 10 c m$ .

Given dimension of rectangular box: height=h cmlength is 5 times its height.So, length=5×h=5h cm Similarly, breadth is 10 cm less than its length.So, breadth = length−10Thus, breadth=5h−10 cmTherefore, length =5h cm and breadth=5h−10 cm.

A rectangular box has height $h c m$ . Its length is $5$ times its height and breadth is $10 c m$ less than its length. Express the length and breadth in terms of the height.

Given dimension of rectangular box:
height $= h c m$
length is $5$ times its height.
So, length $= 5 \times h = 5 h c m$
Similarly, breadth is $10 c m$ less than its length.
So, breadth $=$ length $- 10$
Thus, breadth $= 5 h - 10 c m$
Therefore, length $= 5 h c m$ and breadth $= 5 h - 10 c m$ .
