Answer:
l = 8 units
b = 24 units
(I think that in this question, breadth should be 1/3 of length.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let breadth be b.
Thus, length = b/3 (Acc. to ques)
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b) = 64
=> 2(b/3 + b) = 64
=> (4b/3) = 64/2 => 32
=> 4b = 32*3 => 96
∴ b = 96/4 => 24 units
∴ l = b/3 => 24/3 => 8 units
