Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

here's a somewhat answer, and how to solve it

lets assume that all "60 cm wire is used to make a rectangle"

h = a

w = a + 3

the perimeter of the rectangle is

a + a + a + 3 + a + 3 = 60

4a = 54

a = 13.5

-------------------------------

height = 13.5

width = 16.5

BUT, the problem says "not all the wired is used"

how much? 59? 58? 57.... the lowest value for the shortes side is 1

h = 1

w = 1 + 3 = 4  

perimeter : 1 +4 + 4 + 1 = 6cm

if this is not good enough. please make a comment below to delete my answer
