Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of length : width = 4 : 7
Length = 4x
Width = 7x
Longer side = 31.5 in
⇒ 7x = 31.5
Divide both sides by 7
x = 31.5/7
x = 4.5
length = 4x
= 4*4.5
l = 18 in
width = 31.5
w = 31.5 in
[tex]\boxed{ \text {Perimeter of rectangle }= 2*l + 2*w}[/tex]
= 2*18 + 2*31.5
= 36 + 63
= 99 in
[tex]\boxed{ \text{Area of rectangle = l*w}}[/tex]
= 18*31.5
= 567 in²
