1. The perimeter of a square is thrice the perimeter of a rectangle. If the perimeter of the square is 84 cms and the length of the rectangle is 8 cms, what is the difference between the breadth of the rectangle and the side of the square ?

Let side of square be $$a$$. Length of rectangle be $$l$$ and breadth be $$b$$.
Perimeter of square = $$4 imes a=84$$.
$$a=21 cm$$.
Given $$4 imes a=3 imes2 imes left(l + b
ight)$$.
$$2 imes a = 3 imes left(l + b
ight)$$.
Also given $$l=8 cm$$
$$42=24+3 imes b$$.
$$3 imes b = 42-24 = 18$$
$$b=6$$.
$$a-b=21-6=15 cm$$
Hence Option A is the correct answer
