Expert Answer
Let us assume that the length of the flag be x cm and breadth be y cm.
Perimeter of a flag = 2(l × b)
→ 50 = 2(x + y)
→x + y = 25 ....(i)
According to the condition in the question, we get
(x - 3)(y + 2) = xy - 6
2x - 3y = 0 ...(ii)
Solve (i) and (ii) simultaneously, we get
x = 15 and y = 10
Therefore the length of the flag is 15 cm and the breadth is 10 cm.
