  1. Answer:

    Given:

    ✰ Area of a rectangular aluminium sheet = 3/4 m²

    ✰ The length of the sheet = 51/40 m

    To find:

    ✠ The breadth of a rectangular aluminium sheet.

    Solution:

    Rectangle is a parallelogram with all its angles equal to 90°.

    As we are already provided with the area of rectangle. So, here we will use formula of area of a rectangle to find its breadth. Putting the values in the formula and then doing the required calculations, we will easily find out the breadth of a rectangular aluminium sheet.

    Let’s find out…✧

    ✭ Area of a rectangle = l × b ✭

    Here,

    Area of rectangle is nothing but the area of the sheet which is in the shape of rectangle.

    l is the length of a rectangular aluminium sheet.

    b is the breadth of a rectangular aluminium sheet, which we need to find.

    Putting the values in the formula, we have:

    ➤ 3/4 = 51/40 × b

    ➤ b = 3/4 × 40/50

    ➤ b = 3 × 10/50

    ➤ b = 30/50

    ➤ b = 3/5

    ∴ The breadth of a rectangular aluminium sheet = 3/5 m
