The length of a rectangle is 4 times the breadth. If the perimeter is 125 m, find the length and breadth of the rectangle.
Let the breadth of the rectangle be z
So, length of the rectangle will be 4z
Perimeter= 2(length +breadth)
125 =(2 x 4z) + (2 x z)
= 8z + 2z = 10z
`10z= 125
z=breadth= 125/10
= 12.5m
length= 4z= 12.5 x 4= 50 m
So, length of the rectangle will be 4z
Perimeter= 2(length +breadth)
125 =(2 x 4z) + (2 x z)
= 8z + 2z = 10z
`10z= 125
z=breadth= 125/10
= 12.5m
length= 4z= 12.5 x 4= 50 m
