Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is 36 cm and the length is twice the width. What are
the dimensions of this rectangle?
Width? _____ cm
Length? ____ cm

Answer 1

Answer:

Width __6___ cm

Length __12__ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

x : the width   and y : Length    P : the  perimeter

P=2(x+y )        but : P=36cm  and : y = 2x

36 = 2(x+2x)

36 = 2(3x)

6x =36   so : x=6 cm   and y = 2×6=12cm

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If breadth is b,then length will be 2b,so

Perimeter=36

2(2b+b)=36

3b=18

b=6,so,l=2×6=12

So,length is 12 and breadth is 6,

Hope it helps…
