A rectangular field is 100m by 80 m.find the ratio:length to its breadth
Breadth to its perimeter
length : breadth : perimeter
= 100 : 80 : 360
= .... reduce to lowest term ratio
To find the ratio of length to breadth, you simply divide the length of the rectangular field by its breadth.
In this case, the length of the rectangular field is 100m and the breadth is 80m. So, the ratio of length to breadth can be calculated as follows:
Ratio of length to breadth = length / breadth = 100m / 80m
Simplifying the division, we get:
Ratio of length to breadth = 5/4 (or 1.25)
So, the ratio of length to breadth for the given rectangular field is 5/4 or 1.25.
To find the ratio of breadth to the perimeter of the rectangle, you need to first calculate the perimeter of the field.
The formula to calculate the perimeter of a rectangle is given by:
Perimeter = 2 × (length + breadth)
In this case, the length is 100m and the breadth is 80m. Substituting these values in the formula, we get:
Perimeter = 2 × (100m + 80m)
Perimeter = 2 × 180m
Perimeter = 360m
So, the perimeter of the rectangular field is 360m.
Now, to find the ratio of breadth to the perimeter, you divide the breadth by the perimeter:
Ratio of breadth to perimeter = breadth / perimeter = 80m / 360m
Simplifying the division, we get:
Ratio of breadth to perimeter = 2/9 (or 0.22)
So, the ratio of breadth to perimeter for the given rectangular field is 2/9 or 0.22.
