Question

The length of a rectangle is a 6 time as long as its breadth (a) what fraction of the perimeter of the rectangle give your answer in its simplest form (b) find the ratio of the length of the rectangle to its breadth to its perimeter (c) the perimeter of the rectangle is 336 cm find the length of the rectangle​

Answer 1

Explanation:

if L = 6W, then

P = 2L+2W = 12W+2W = 14W

a) 6W/14W = 3/7

b) L:W = 6W:W = 6:1

see a) for L:P

c) 14W = 342.44

W = 24.46

L = 146.76
