The breadth of the rectangular firls is 20m less than its length.. Find its dimensions if perimeter is 160 m

length of the rectangular firls = 50

and the breadth = x-20m= 50-20m =30m

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is given as  2(l+b)

let the length be represented as x

such that the breadth = x-20m

so our expression for the perimeter of the rectangular firls becomes

Perimeter = 2l+ 2b

160= 2x + 2 ( x-20)

160= 2x+ 2x-40

160+40 =4x

200= 4x

x= 200/4

x= 50

So the length of the rectangular firls = 50

and the breadth = x-20m= 50-20m =30m

Length =60m

Breadth= 20m

Step-by-step explanation:

Breadth of the rectangular firls = 20m

Perimeter = 160m

Length = X

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L +B)

Where L= Length

           B = Breadth

160 = 2( 20 + X)

160 = 40 +20X

160- 40 =20X

120= 20X

20X = 120

X = 120/20

X = 60

The dimensions are:

Length =60m

Breadth= 20m
