OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did this by finding the equivalent fractions of 3:5 which when multiplied gave me 375

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so your thoughts @shubhamsrg ?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

3x and 5x are your sides what was your next step ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i will multiply them to get the area!

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

go ahead

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15x=375 x=25

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

and perimeter = 3x + 5x

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

and nop you have made a mistake in finding x recheck

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yeah it is x=5

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

rest is easy ^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):
