Question

e length of a rectangle is five times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 320in, find its perimeter.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Let width of rectangle =X

So length=5x

Given area of rectangle =320inch

Area of rectangle =length ×width

Length×width=320

5X×X=320

5x^2=320

x^2=320/5

x^2=64

So X=√64

Width x= 8inch

Length 5x=5×8

= 40 inch

Perimeter of rectangle =2(length+width)

=2(40+8)

=2(48)

=96inch
