  • Question
  • How many rectangles can be drawn with 36 cm as the perimeter, given that the sides are positive integers in cm?


  • Options
  • A. 8
  • B. 9
  • C. 10
  • D. 11

  • Correct Answer


  • Explanation

    Perimeter = 36


    ? 2 ( l + w ) = 36


    ? l + w = 18


    Since length and width are positive integers in centimeters.

    Therefore, possible dimensions are :


    ( 1, 17 )cm , ( 2, 16 ) cm , ( 3, 15 ) cm, (4 , 14) cm, ( 5,13) cm, ( 6, 12) cm , ( 7, 11) cm, ( 8, 10 ) cm, ( 9, 9) cm.


    Hence, there are 9 rectangles.
