The dimensions of the rectangle given are

length = 14 meters

Width = 8 meters

The perimeter of the rectangle is given by the sum of its sides

The rectangle has to opposite sides of 14 meters and two opposite sides of 8 meters

Hence adding up the 4 sides we get

$8+14+8+14 = 44$

Hence option B is the right answer
