Question 1101572: The perimeter of a rectangle is 90m. It's the length is 1.5 times it's width. Find the length and worth of the rectangle Answer by amarjeeth123(569) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let the width be x.
Then the length is 1.5x.
Perimeter of a rectangle=2(length+ width)
2(1.5x+x)=90
2(2.5x)=90
5x=90
x=18 metres.
The width is 18 metres and the length is 27 metres.
