The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to 2 times the sum of the length and the width, which we can write as P = 2 (l + w).
We know the perimeter is 12 therefore
12 = 2 (l + w)
l + w = 12 /2
l + w = 6
So now we need to find pairs of integers (not including 0, for a rectangle can't exist with a dimension of 0) which add up to 6.
The pairs are:
1 & 5, 2 & 4 or 3 & 3.
This gives us 5 possible combinations:
Length = 1 Width = 5
Length = 2 Width = 4
Length = 3 Width = 3
Length = 4 Width = 2
Length = 5 Width = 1
divide perimeter by 6.
The dimensions are 12 feet by 4 feet
length and width
The length is 10 meters and the width is 5 meters
Twice the (width plus length)
divide perimeter by 6.
The dimensions are 12 feet by 4 feet
To know the perimeter, you must know the dimensions (length and width). But there are many possible dimensions if you have 24 square feet.
width*height*length=perimeter of a rectangular prism! :)

1 x 5 2 x 4 3 x 3
length and width
the perimeter of a rectangular rug is 40 ft. the length is 2 ft longer than the width. find the dimensions
Perimeter=24ft
Length is 3/4 of 36 ie 27 ft, width is 9 ft
length = 22 meters and width = 6 meters
The length is 10 meters and the width is 5 meters
