Answer:
The length=16cm and the width=8cm.
Explanation:
Given that the length is twice the breadth or width of the rectangle
Let's assume that the breadth of the rectangle is x.
Thus the length is 2x.
Given perimeter=48cm
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(l+b) where l is length and b is breadth.
2(x+2x)=48
(3x)=48/2
3x=24
x=8cm
2x=16cm
