The area of the rectangle is 192 cm2, the length of one of the sides of this rectangle is 16 cm

The area of the rectangle is 192 cm2, the length of one of the sides of this rectangle is 16 cm. Find the perimeter of the rectangle.

Before you can find the value of the rectangle’s perimeter, you should determine the length of its second side.

Since the area is the product of length and width, to determine the other side, we divide the area by 16 cm.

We get:

192/16 = 12 cm.

In this case, the perimeter of the figure will be equal to twice the sum of its sides.

We get:

2 * (12 + 16) = 2 * 28 = 56 cm.

Answer: The perimeter of the rectangle is 56 cm.
