The area of a rectangle is given as length multiplied by width. In this case, that means 12.1*7.3, which is 88.33 square meters. The perimeter of a rectangle is found by adding all the sides together. Because a rectangle has 4 sides (2 lengths and 2 widths), the equation to find the perimeter is defined as where l is the length and w is the width. Substituting in your values of 12.1 and 7.3 produces the equation , which simplifies to , and that equates to 38.8 m.
