Explanation:

Given,

perimeter - 16cm

length - 5cm

find breadth,

perimeter of rectangle = l × b

b = 3.2 cm

Explanation:

Given

perimeter (P) = 16 cm

Length(L) = 5 cm

breadth (b) = ?

We know

P = 2 (L + b)

16 = 2 ( 5 + b)

16 = 10 + 2b

2b = 16 - 10

2b = 6

b = 6 / 2

b = 3 cm

Hope it will help :)❤
