Answer: The length is 15 inches and breadth is 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Area of rectangular sheet = 135 square inches

Perimeter of rectangular sheet = 48 square inches

Now Area of rectangular sheet = $Length\times Breadth$ = 135 square inches

perimeter of rectangular sheet = $2\times (Length+Breadth)$ = 48 square inches

Thus $(Length+Breadth)$ = 24 square inches

Thus Length = 15 inches

Breadth = 9 inches
