1. The area of a rectangular R width 4 feet is equal to the area of a square S which has a perimeter of 24 feet. The perimeter of the rectangular R, in feet is--

  • A. 9
  • B. 9
  • C. 9
  • D. 9

Answer: Option D

Explanation:


Side of the square = 24/4 = 6.

Area of the square = 62  = 36

ATQ, Area of rectangle, Length x width = 36

or,   Length x 4 = 36

or, Length = 9

So, the perimeter of the rectangle = 2(Length + width) = 2(9 + 4) = 26
