The length of the side of the rectangular section is 96 meters, and the width is 16 times less.

The length of the side of the rectangular section is 96 meters, and the width is 16 times less. Find the perimeter and area of the site.

Let’s find what the smaller side of the site is equal to, if it is known that it is 16 times less than the length, which is 96 m:

1) 96/16 = 6 (m).

We determine the perimeter of the site, knowing that the site has the shape of a rectangle, using the ratio: P = 2 * (a + b).

2) P = 2 * (96 + 6) = 2 * 102 = 204 (m).

We calculate the area of the site using the known pattern: S = a * b.

3) S = 96 * 6 = 576 (m2).

Answer: the site has a perimeter of 204 m, and the area of this site is 576 m2.
