Oh honey, let's break it down for you. The greatest area of the rectangle occurs when it's a square, so the sides are 4.5 inches each, giving an area of 20.25 square inches. The least area happens when it's a skinny little strip, like 1 inch by 8 inches, giving an area of 8 square inches. So the difference between the greatest and least possible areas is 12.25 square inches. Honey, you're welcome.
Well, isn't that a happy little problem to solve! To find the greatest area, we want to maximize the length and width while still keeping the perimeter at 18 inches. To find the least area, we want to minimize the length and width. By playing with different dimensions, you'll find the difference between the greatest and least possible areas of the rectangle. Just like painting, it's all about finding the right balance!
Let's assume they are 1 inch floor tiles.
20 - 8 = 12 square inches

What is the greatest possible area for perimeter rectangle of 36 ft?
81 square feet.
What is the greatest area for a rectangle with perimeter 20cm?
The greatest area is attained when the rectangle is, in fact, a square. Then it has sides of 5 cm and an area of 25 cm2. If you are not permitted to have a square then the answer is as close to 25 cm2 as you can get without actually getting there. So, more than 24.99, more than 24.99999 etc but never quite 25.
What is difference between a radius and a diameter?
