1. Answer:

   12 cm is the breadth of the rectangle .

   Step-by-step explanation:

   • area of square = Side × Side
   • side of square = 18 cm
   • =18×18 = 324 sq. cm
   • area of rectangle = length × breadth
   • length of rectangle = 27 cm
   • let the breadth of rectangle be ‘x’
   • so, 27 × x = 324 sq. cm (because the 0f both the figures is same)
   • so , we do the reverse operation to find the value of ‘x’ = 324 ÷ 27 = 12 cm
   • So , the breadth of the rectangle is 12 cm .
