✫ Question -:
The perimeter of a rectangle is 30 inches. The length of the rectangle is twice as long as the width. What are the dimensions (length and width) of the rectangle?
✫ Explanation -:
Given :
- Perimeter = 30 inches
- Length is twice as long as it's width
Need to find :
- Dimensions of the rectangle rectangle
Solution :
First we will make an equation and then we will calculate the dimensions of the rectangle using the formula.
Length is twice as long as it's width
Let us assume width as x then length = 2x
We know,

Where,
- L stand for Length
- B stand for Breadth
Substituting the values in the above formula





Substituting the value of x = 5
Length = 2x = 2 × 5 = 10 inches
Breadth = x = 5 inches
Final Answer :
- Length = 10 inches
- Breadth = 5 inches
