The answer will depend upon what shape the object is.
For example, if the shape was a rectangle then the perimeter = (length + width) * 2.
If the shape was something different then the relationship would also be different.
the perimeter is all of the sides added up, the length and width would only give you half of the perimeter i think...
one. Just length.
a rectangle has a perimeter of 72m. If the length is 20 m longer than the width find its dimensions?
You can't tell the dimensions from the perimeter. There are an infinite number of rectangles, with different dimensions, that all have the same perimeter. If it's 168, then the only thing you can be sure of is that the length and width add up to 84, but you can't tell what either of those dimensions must be.
You forgot to put in the length of the rectangle's perimeter.
x2=y

A rectangle has two dimensions - length and width. Only if both dimensions are doubled, then the perimeter will be doubled.
Perimeter is the distance around an object. Area is the total amount of space inside the object. Length is the the measurement of one side of the object. Length is added up to find the perimeter. Length is multiplied to find the area.

To know the perimeter, you must know the dimensions (length and width). But there are many possible dimensions if you have 24 square feet.

divide perimeter by 6.
All that can definitely be said is that length plus width = 50 feet.
The dimensions are length 50 yards and width 25 yards
