Answer 1

Answer:

43.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

On this problem you would just find the perimeter which is 2(l+w) and that is 24 units and after you do that you would just have to multiply the perimeter 24 times 1.8 which would leave you with and answer of 43.2 units.

Answer 2

Answer:

New length = 3.5 x 8 = 28 cm

New width = 3.5 x 6 = 21 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(28) + 2(21) = 56 + 42 = 98 cm

Area = 28 x 21 = 588 square cm
