From the question it is given that,

The length of a rectangular field is twice its breadth = 2b

Perimeter of rectangular field = 6km/4

= 1.5 km

We know that, perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (length + breadth)

1.5 = 2 × (2b + b)

1.5 = 2 × 3b

1.5 = 6b

b = 1.5/6

b = 0.25 km

length of rectangle field = 2 × 0.25 = 0.5km

= 0.5 × 1000

= 500 m
