The ratio between the perimeter and the breadth of a rectangle is 5 : 1. If the area of the rectangle is 216 sq. cm, what is the length of the rectangle?
Correct Answer: Option B
\(\frac{2\left(l+b\right)}b=\frac51\)
=> 2l + 2b = 5b => 3b = 2l
b=(2/3)l
Then, Area = 216 cm2
=> l x b = 216 => l x (2/3)l =216
l = 18 cm.
