उत्तर

Let l and b the length and breadth of each rectangle, respectively.


Given, perimeter of a rectangle = 264 cm

According to the figure,

4l + 5b = 264  ...(i)

And 2l = 3b  ...(ii)

Put the value of 3b from equation (ii) in equation (i),

2(2l) + 5b = 264

⇒ 2 × 3b + 5b = 264

⇒ 6b + 5b = 264

⇒ 11b = 264

⇒ b = `264/11`

⇒ b = 24 cm

∴ `l = (3b)/2 = (3 xx 24)/2` = 36 cm

Hence, perimeter of the rectangle = 2(1 + b) = 2(36 + 24) = 120 cm.
