Answer:


\huge \boxed{ \boxed{ \sf parimeter = 150cm}}

Explanation:

to understand this

you need to know about:

  • similarity
  • PEMDAS
  • equation

tips and formulas:

  • when two shapes are similar the rotio of two sides or area or parimeter is equal

let's solve:


step - 1 : define

let the parimeter of second shape be x


\sf (48)/(60) = (120)/(x)


step - 2 : solve


  1. \sf cross \: multiplication : \\ \sf 48x =72 00

  2. \sf divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 48 : \\ \sf (48x)/(48) = (7200)/(48) \\ \therefore x = 150
