Question

The length of a rectangle is the same as its width. If its perimeter is 32 meters, what is its area?

Answer 1

If the length and width are the same, you can divide the perimiter by 4 to get the side length. Since it's a square, you can multiply that length by itself to get the area, so you're answer is 8 * 8 = 64.

Answer 2

The answer would be 64m2.
Since the length of a rectangle is the same as its width, it would be like a square. The perimeter is like outside of the shape which is 32. 32/4 since they have 4 sides is 8. Each sides is 8 so 8 times 8 is 64m2
