The ratio between length and breadth of a rectangle is 3 : 2. If area of the rectangle is 96 cm², then length of the rectangle is

12 cm

Ratio between length and breadth of a rectangle is 3 : 2

Let the sides be 3x and 2x

Area of the rectangle is 96 cm2

3x*2x = 96

$6x^2 = 96$

$x^2 = 16$

x = 4

Length = 3*4 = 12

The correct answer is Option (2) → 12 cm
