The perimeter of a rectangular park is 5 km, 474 m. If its length is 1 km 782 m, then its breadth is

Correct option is A

Given:

Perimeter of rectangular park = 5 km 474 m

Length = 1 km 782 m

Find the breadth

Formula Used:

Perimeter of a rectangle  = 2(L + B) 

Solution:

Convert all measures into metres:

Perimeter = 5 km 474 m = 5474 m

Length = 1 km 782 m = 1782 m

Perimeter = 2(L + B) 

5474 = 2(L + B) 

$$\frac{5474}{2}$$ = 1782 + B 

2737 = 1782 + B 

B = 2737 - 1782 = 955 m

Thus, Breadth = 955 m
