The length of the rectangle is 6 cm and the width is 2 cm less. Find the area and perimeter.

Formula for finding the area of a rectangle:

S = a * b, where a is the width, b is the length of the rectangle.

Formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2 * (a + b).

1) Find the width of the rectangle:

6 – 2 = 4 (cm) – the width of the rectangle.

2) Find the area of the rectangle:

6 * 4 = 24 (cm ^ 2) – the area of the rectangle.

3) Find its perimeter:

(6 + 4) * 2 = 20 (cm) – the perimeter of the rectangle.
