Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = x + 2x + 2x = 5x
Since 5x <= 46.8cm, x <= 9.36cm.
The largest base is 9.36cm.
If it is a triangle h is height and b is base.
you don't need to know this for real life situations but for school you do need to know it, i dont know how to do this but here's a link to the same question you have but it's explained on how to solve it

((Also i'm a fellow ARMY as well =) ))
The first triangle has a perimeter of 4+6+10 = 20.
The 2nd longest side is 6/20 = 3/10 of the perimeter. In the larger triangle, the 2nd longest side will have length (3/10)*60 = 18.
_____
These side lengths mean the "triangle" is a line segment. That is, it has zero area.
4√6÷√30= 4√5/5, or ≈1.788854382
