  1. Step-by-step explanation:

    let breadth be x

    then

    length will be = 2x+1

    perimeter of rectangle= 2(length+breadth) =80cm

    2((2x+1)+x) =80 cm

    2(3x+1)=80 cm

    6x+2= 80cm

    6x= 802 cm

    x= 78÷6 cm

    x= 13 cm

    breadth =13 cm

    length = 2×13+1

    = 27 cm
