6x4 has a perimeter of 2*(6+4) = 2*10 = 20 cm 6.5x2 has a perimeter of 2*(6.5+2) = 2*8.5 = 17 cm So the first has the larger perimeter.
if one length is 9cm, the other length must be 6cm to make an area of 54cm. hence the perimeter is 9+9+6+6 = 30cm
Perimeter of rectangle: 2*(7+6) = 26 m
To answer this simply try a few out for yourself. In a 2x1 cm rectangle, the area is 2 cm squared and the perimeter is 6 cm In a 12x10 rectangle, the area is 120 cm squared and the perimeter is 44 cm. In some cases, the perimeter is larger and in others it is smaller. To answer your question, no, the perimeter of a rectangle is NOT always greater than its area.
Perimeter of rectangle: 6+3+6+3 = 18 yards
