Length of the envelope  = 1.32 inches

Width of the envelope = 14.52 inches.

Let the width of the rectangle be  x

Then the length of the rectangle will be 2 3/4 x.

Also the length of the plastic band to cover the  front and back of the envelope =  39 5/8

To cover one side the band required is

=> 39 5/8 ÷ 2

=> 317/8 ÷ 2

=> 317 / 16

=> 19.8

We know that the perimeter of the rectangle is

2( Length + Breadth) = 19.8 /2

=> 2( 2 3/4 x +x  ) = 9.9

=> 2( 11/4 x +x) = 9.9

=>  2 (11x +4x ÷ 4) = 9.9

=>  2 × 15x / 4 = 9.9

=>  15x = 9.9 ×2

⇒ x = 1.32

Now length of the envelope =

=  2 3/4 × x

= 2 3/4 × 1.32  

= 11 × 1.32

= 14.52

Therefore the length of the rectangular envelope is 14.52 inches.

                  the width of the rectangular envelope is 1.32 inches.
