The area of the rectangle is 48 square cm, and the length of one of its sides is 6 cm. Find the perimeter of this rectangle.

The area of the rectangle S is 48 cm2.
The length of rectangle a is 6 centimeters.

In order to find the perimeter, you must first find the width of the rectangle using the formula b = S: a:
b = S: a = 48: 6 = 8 centimeters.
Find the perimeter P of the rectangle by the formula P = a + a + b + b:
P = a + a + b + b = 6 + 6 + 8 + 8 = 28 centimeters.
Answer: The perimeter of the rectangle is 28 centimeters.
