Given : The perimeter of a rectangular atrium is 64 centimeters. The length of the garden is 3 times the width. Find the length and the width.

Solution :

Let us assume the breadth be B

The length is three times the breadth So, the length be 3B

Perimeter of the rectangle = 64 cm

Perimeter = 2(Length + Breadth)

64 cm = 2(3B + B)

64 cm = 2(4B)

64 cm = 8B

B = 8 cm

  • Length = 3B = 3(8) = 24 cm

  • Breadth = B = 8 cm
