Given :-

  • Let breadth = x

  • Perimeter of rectangle = 148 m

To Find :-

  • Values of length and breadth

Formulae USED :-

\red{ \boxed{ \sf{perimeter \: of \: rectangle = 2(length + breadth)}}}

SOLUTION :-

\ \: { \sf{ 148 \:  = 2(3x - 6 + x)}} \\  \\  \ \: { \sf{ \implies \: 148  \:  =  \: 6x - 12 + 2x}} \\  \\  \ \: { \sf{ \implies \: 148 \: m \:  =  \: 8x - 12}} \\  \\  \ \: { \sf{ \implies \: 148 + 12  =  \:8x }} \\  \\  \ \: { \sf{ \implies \: 8x \:  =  \: 160}} \\  \\  \ \: { \sf{ \implies \: x \:  =  \:  \frac{160}{8} }} \\  \\  \ \: { \sf{ \implies \: x =  \: 20}} \\  \\  \pink { \sf{length = 3x - 6 = 3 \times 20 - 6 = 54 \: m}} \\  \\  \ \pink{ \sf{breadth \:  =  \: x \:  =  \: 20 \: m}}
