The perimeter of the rectangle is 28cm, one side is 2cm larger than the other. Find the area of this rectangle.

Xcm – one side of the rectangle; (x + 2) cm is the other side of the rectangle.
2 * x + 2 * (x + 2) = 28
2x + 2x + 4 = 28
4x = 28-4
4x = 24
X = 6 – one side
6 + 2 = 8 – the other side
6 * 8 = 48 cm ^ 2 – the area of the rectangle.
