Question 554818: My son's class has been working on perimeter problems and now have changed to area problems. Struggling with this one. Thanks for your help.
????List all possible whole number measurements for length and width for a rectangle with an area of 20 feet.

these are the whole number factor pairs of 20

1 , 20
2 , 10
4 , 5
5 , 4
10 , 2
20 , 1

the duplicate pairs may not apply in your case (if length is considered to be the "longest" measurement)
