Question

The length of a rectangle is 3 more than its breadth. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 2b + 9, find the breadth of the rectangle.

$\frac{2}{3}$
2
$\frac{3}{2}$
5

hint Hint:

Let the breadth of the rectangle be b.
Length = 3 + b
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (b + 3 + b)

The correct answer is: $3 over 2$

Let the breadth of the rectangle be b.
Length = 3 + b
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (b + 3 + b)
2b + 9 = 2 (2b + 3)
2b + 9 = 4b + 6
9 - 6 = 4b - 2b
2b = 3
b = $3 over 2$
