You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Since you already know the formula for the perimeter which is
P = 2L + 2W, you simply plug in the values into the formula and you will find the perimeter.
So, when L = 15 and W = 25 we can write this:
P = 2(15) + 2(25)
P = 30 + 50
P = 80
Therefore the perimeter is 80.
