Rectangular garden or rectangular garden has a length that is three time its white if the perimeter of the garden is 64 m what are the dimensional of the garden in formula method of quadrilateral method maths 1



Answer :

Answer:

Length =24 m

Width = 8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use L to denote the length of the rectangular garden

let us use W to denote the width of the rectangular garden

The perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x (length + width)

Using the variable introduced above we get

Perimeter P = 2(L + W)

We are given that length = 3 times width

This translates to:
L = 3W

Substituting for L in the perimeter equation we get
P = 2(3W + W) = 2(4W) = 8W

We are given P = 64 m

So we get 8W = 64

Dividing by 8 both sides:
8W/8 = 64/8
W = 8

Since L = 3W, L = 3 x 8 = 24

Therefore the dimensions of the rectangular garden are

Length =24 m

Width = 8 m
