Without further information it is impossible to say (exactly):

If the rectangle was 0.5 x 6.5, its perimeter is 14 units and its area is 3.25 units2

If the rectangle was 1 x 6, its perimeter is 14 units and its area is 6 units2

If the rectangle was 2 x 5, its perimeter is 14 units and its area is 10 units2

If the rectangle was 3 x 4, its perimeter is 14 units and its area is 12 units2

If the rectangle was 3.5 x 3.5, its perimeter is 14 units and its area is 12.25 units2 (and it's a square).

It all depends upon the lengths of the longer and shorter sides of the rectangle: as long as 2 x longer + 2 x shorter = 14, any area greater than 0 units2 and less than or equal to 12.25 units2 can be made.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
