By the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, all number can be expressed as a product of prime numbers.

So naturally, lets divide 120 by an easy prime number.
We know that 120 is even, so lets try 2 120/2 = 60 lets keep dividing it by two until it becomes odd or prime 60/2 = 30 30/2 = 15 now lets see, what are some factors of 15?

Well the obvious ones are 3 and 5, both of which are prime. So now we can just count up how many times we divided it by 2
 
120/2 = 60 60/2 = 30 30/2 = 15 and 15 is just 3 x 5, so: <span>
120=(<span>23</span>)×(3)×(5)</span>
or <span><span>
120 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5</span></span>

Answer:

48cm

Step-by-step explanation:

take width of rectangle to be=xcm

Length will be 3x

Area of rectangle=length × width

A=3x × x =3x²

3x²=108

x²=108/3=36

x²=36

x=√36=6cm

substitute

lenth=3x=3×6=18

width=x=6cm

perimeter=2l+2w

p=2×18 + 2×6

p=36+12=48cm
