The length and breadth of a rectangular park is 5:2. if it's perimeter is 168 m. Find it's length and breadth.
Solution,
Let the length and breadth of a rectangular park be x
Therefore-. L=5x and B = 2x
Now,
Perimeter=2(l b)
or,. 168m = 2(5x 2x)
or,. 168m = 2(7x)
or,. 168m = 14x
or,. 168/14 = x
or,. 12m =x
Therefore,
X=12m
Putting the value of x in
L= 5x
=5×12
=60m ANS
B=2x
= 2×12
= 24m ANS
