20 cm, I think
The perimeter is 18 and the height is 4 cm.

4 cm x 2 = 8
We are multiplying it by two because there are two side in a rectangle that are the same height

18 - 8 = 10
We are finding the length of the rectangle
10\2 = 5
The length of the rectangle is 5

5 x 4 = 20
That is the area

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle= 2l+2h so 2l+2(4)=18. SO 2l=10. l=5

Area=bh

(5)(4)=20cm

Answer:
3c=273
c=91
2c= 212
C= 106
c= 91+ 106= 197
so they will need 197 canoes total

Why:
So first you have to determine a set variable to represent the number of canoes, I chose C. Then you make an equation to represent the number of canoes 273 people will use if they group into 3's, from this I got 3c=273. Solve for C and get 91.
The remainder of the group which is 485-273= 212 will use canoes in groups of 2's. To represent this, 2c=212. Solve for C and get 106. Combine 106 and 91 to get the total number of canoes.
