WHAT IS THE FORMULA FOR PERIMETER OF A RECTANGLE\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter = 2 (Length + Breadth)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Suppose that the width/breadth of rectangle is x ft
\n" ); document.write( "Then we have 1/4 Length = 2x
\n" ); document.write( " Length = 2x * 1/4
\n" ); document.write( " Length = x/2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now Perimeter = 2 (Length + Breadth) = 160
\n" ); document.write( " 2 (x/2 + x) = 160
\n" ); document.write( " 2 (3x/2) = 160
\n" ); document.write( " 3x = 160
\n" ); document.write( " x = 160/3
\n" ); document.write( " So Width/Breadth = 160/3 ft
\n" ); document.write( " Length = (160/3)/2 = 160/6\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "CHECK = Perimeter = 2 (Length + Breadth)
\n" ); document.write( " = 2 (160/6 + 160/3)
\n" ); document.write( " = 2 *160(1/6 + 1/3)
\n" ); document.write( " = 2 * 160((2+1)/6)
\n" ); document.write( " = 2 * 160 * 3 /6
\n" ); document.write( " = 160 ft\r
\n" ); document.write( "
