Can a square have the same perimeter and area?

Answer 1

The area and perimeter might be written with the same number,

but they can't be 'the same' because they have different units.

its perimeter is 16 feet and its area is 16 square feet.

These are not 'the same'.

Answer 2

Yes, if the length of each side is 4.
