1 rectangle has a circumference of 72cm. If you reduce the width by 6cm and keep the same length, the area will decrease by 120cm2. Calculate the length and width of the rectangle. Detail solution pls

Answer

the length is 20 cm and breadth is 16cm

Step-by-step explanation:

let, 2(a+b)= 72( as its the formulae of circumference)

here a is the length and b is the breadth

now total area is ab

according to the question

a(b-6)= ab-120

or -6a= - 120

so length is 20 cm

now by putting the value in the 1st eq we get

2(a+b)=72

or(a+b)=36

or 20+b=36

so breadth is 16 cm.

length is 20cm and breadth is 16 cm

(u can verify that easily)
