The perimeter actually doesn't tell you anything about the breakdown between

the length and width. All we can tell about this one is that the sum of (length+width)

has to be 98 inches. That still leaves an infinite number of possible rectangles.

If the perimeter is 196 inches and the length has to be the longer dimension, then

it can be anything more than 49 inches, with no upper limit.

For example:

Width = 1 millionth of an inch

Length = 1 millionth of an inch less than 98 inches

Perimeter = 196 inches.
