If the perimeter of the hexagon is 24 cm and it is regular, then each side has the same length, namely 24/6 or 4.
Now that is also the length of each side of the octagon since they share a common side so its perimeter is 8x4=32 cm.
Why do you think is the reason why spiers build their webs in a polygonal shape rather that rectangular?
48"Four sides of 12in each; 4x12=48.
Such are usually called equilateral triangles.

the common denominator!
I do not know of 'least common decimal', but i do know of 'least common denominator'
Length + width = 18 cm so length = 12 cm and width = 6 cm. Presumably the length is the common side so the perimeter of the octagon is 8 x 12 = 96 cm. If the width is the common side then the perimeter of the octagon is 8 x 6 = 48 cm
Some of them are: triangle, quadrilateral, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, octagon, nonagon, decagon ..... etc

In general, an octagonal pyramid is a pyramid with an octagon for a base and triangles (which all have a common vertex) for sides. The octagon my or may not be a regular one.

beehives are hexagonal most of your regular #2 pencils are hexagon shaped
A hexagon without symmetry is the most common form for a hexagon.
A common object that is an octagon is a "stop sign".
they are polygons
It's one of the only shapes which tessellates perfectly (think tiles, if you tiled a wall with hexagons then there wouldn't be any gaps. Of the shapes which tessellate perfectly (triangle, square, hexagon) it has the smallest perimeter for its area i.e. a square of area 10cm^2 has a greater perimeter than that of a hexagon with an area of 10cm^2. So, if you were a bee trying to make a honeycomb then the hexagon is best because it would use least wax to make a certain area of comb (because of the perimeter/area ratio) and also not waste any space (because it tessellates without leaving any gaps). Hope that helps.
The prefix -hex means "six". Therefore, a hexagon has six sides. A regular hexagon is made up of equal sides and equal angles and is the most common. Many irregular hexagons exist and their criteria are dependent on the form they take.
Both are polygons
