Answer: Length = 28cm

Width = 7cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be represented by x.

Since the length is four times its width. Therefore, the length would be:

= 4 × x = 4x

The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated as:

= 2(length + breadth)

Therefore, 2(4x + x) = 70

2(5x) = 70

10x = 70

x = 70/10

x = 7

Therefore, width = 7cm

Length = 4x = 4 × 7 = 28cm
