Answer:
Width = 38.57cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 270cm
Let x be the width, so
Length = 2 1/2 x = 5x/2
Perimeter of Rectangle = 2(length + width)
270cm = 2(5x/2 + x)
270 = 5x + 2x
7x = 270
x = 38.571 cm
Therefore, the width is 38.57cm (rounded to 2nd decimal place)
Answer:
width = 38.6 cm (approx.)
Step-by-step explanation:
let the width be x cm, so that the length is 2.5x cm.
Perimeter = 2 (length + width)
2 (length + width) = 270 cm
or, 2 (2½x cm + x cm) = 270 cm
or, 3½x cm = 270/2 = 135 cm
or, x = 270/7 cm = 38.6 cm (approx.)
