Detailed Solution

Given that length of an aluminum strip = 40 cm.
According to the given condition,
The aluminum strip is used to make the rectangular frames.
Then,
Length of the aluminum wire = Perimeter of the rectangle
Rectangular frame of length = 15 cm
Rectangular frame of breadth = 5cm.
Perimeter of the rectangle frame = length of the aluminum strip
2 × (length + breadth) = 40
(l + b) = 402 (l + b) = 20
The possible measurement of rectangular frames are 1 cm×19 cm, 2cm×18 cm, 3cm×17 cm, 4cm×16 cm, 5cm×15 cm, 6cm×14 cm, 7cm×13 cm, 8cm×12 cm, 9cm×11 cm, 10cm×10 cm.
Hence, option (2) is correct.
