Question

The length of a rectangle is 7 times its breadth. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 96 m. find its length and breadth.

Answer 1

Let the breadth of the rectangle be $x$.

$Length=7x$

Since, the perimeter of the rectangle $=96m$

Therefore,

$2(Length+Breadth)=96$

$2(7x+x)=96$

$16x=96$

$x=6m$

So, the length will be $7\times 6=42m$

Hence, the is the answer.
