<u>If the width is 23 meters, the perimeter of the rectangle is 100 meters, or if the width of the rectangle is 0.23 meters, the perimeter is 54.46 meters.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Length of the rectangle = 27 meters

Width of the rectangle = 23 meters or 0.23 meters (it's not clear)

2. We will calculate the perimeter for any of the two possible values of the width of the rectangle, this way:

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 * Length + 2 * Width

Replacing with the values we know:

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 * 27 + 2 * 23

Perimeter of the rectangle = 54 + 46 = 100 meters

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 * 27 + 2 * 0.23

Perimeter of the rectangle = 54 + 0.46 = 54.46 meters
