Calculate the perimeter and area of a rectangle whose sides are 2 times longer than the sides

Calculate the perimeter and area of a rectangle whose sides are 2 times longer than the sides of the rectangle 8 cm long and 8 cm wide.

Let’s calculate the lengths of the sides of our rectangle if they are 2 times larger than the original:

2 * 8 = 16 cm.

Let’s calculate the perimeter of our rectangle, for this we add the lengths of all sides:

8 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 32 cm.

Let’s calculate the area of our rectangle, for this we multiply the length by the width:

8 * 8 = 64 cm2.

Answer: The perimeter of the rectangle is 32 cm, and its area is 64 cm2.
