Can the perimeter of a rectangle be greater than it's area?
No, because the perimeter is the outside edge and the area is the amount of space in the shape
What would be a greater perimeter but a smaller area to a question of 24 and a area of 27?
Perimeter = 24 and area = 27 . . . . . rectangle, 3 by 9 Perimeter = 32 and area = 15 . . . . . rectangle, 1 by 15
Can a rectangle have a smaller perimeter and also a greater area?
Yes. For instance, the rectangle measuring 1 by 10 has a perimeter of 22 and an area of 10, whereas the rectangle measuring 4 by 4 has a perimeter of 16 and an area of 16.
If the area is 350square feet what is the perimeter?
There is insufficient information to answer the question. For a given area, the perimeter depends upon the shape. For a given area, the circle will have the smallest perimeter. For polygons, regular polygons will have a smaller perimeter than an irregular one of the same area. Also, for regular polygons, the greater the number of sides, the smaller the perimeter.
Need a rectangle with a area greater than 30 and a perimeter of 22?
6x5
Can a rectangle have a greater perimeter and also have a greater area?
Of course, a rectangle can have a greater perimeter and a greater area. Simply double all the sides: the perimeter is doubled and the area is quadrupled - both bigger than they were.
Is a greater perimeter going to have a greater area can you show a picture?
yes it will have a greater area
Is perimeter always greater than the area?
No the area is almost always greater.
Can a rectangle have a greater perimeter than another one but have a greater area too?
yes it can; a rectangle 5 by 2 has perimeter 14 and area 10 for example; a rectangle 10 by 2 has perimeter 24 and area 20, both greater.
Does a polygon with a greater area always have a greater perimeter?
No it depends on the size of the polygon
Can the perimeter of a rectangle be greater than it's area?

What would be a greater perimeter but a smaller area to a question of 24 and a area of 27?
Perimeter = 24 and area = 27 . . . . . rectangle, 3 by 9 Perimeter = 32 and area = 15 . . . . . rectangle, 1 by 15
What is the area of greater than 16 with a perimeter of 16?
A circle with a circumference (perimeter) of 16 units has an area of approx 20.4 units.
Is The area of a rectangle always greater than the perimeter?
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.
Which has greater area circle or square?
For a given perimeter, the circle has the largest area possible.
Same perimeter different area?
Circle, square, triangle and rectangle of same perimeter. Which will have more area?? The circle will have the greatest area. For regular polygons, the greater the number of vertices, the greater the area. (And so, in the limit, the circle, with an infinite number of vetices, has the greatest area.)
Can a rectangle have a smaller perimeter and also a greater area?
Yes. For instance, the rectangle measuring 1 by 10 has a perimeter of 22 and an area of 10, whereas the rectangle measuring 4 by 4 has a perimeter of 16 and an area of 16.
