Question

The length of a rectangle is 11cm more than the width. The perimeter is 90cm. Find the length and width of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Length=22.5cm, Breadth=11.5cm

Explanation:

Let length be l and width be w.

w+22=l

w+w+w+22+w+22=90

4w=90-22-22

=46

w=46 divided by 4

=11.5

l=11.5+11

=22.5

Hence,

Length of rectangle=22.5cm

Breadth of rectangle=11.5cm
