Answer:
length= 17.5 m , breadth = 12.5 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of length : breadth = 7 : 5 = 7x : 5x ( x is a multiplier )
Then
2l + 2b = perimeter ( l is length, b is breadth )
2(7x) + 2(5x) = 60
14x + 10x = 60
24x = 60 ( divide both sides by 24 )
x = 2.5
Then
length = 7x = 7 × 2.5 = 17.5 m
breadth = 5x = 5 × 2.5 = 12.5 m
72 = 8*9
8 + 9 = 17
The factors you're looking for are 8 and 9.
