Dimensions of a Rectangle



       Only two rectangles have dimensions that are integers and their area and perimeter equal the same number. Can you find both?

Answer:   L. W = 2(L+ W)                
      L= 2w   / W-2
W-2 = 1 or W – 2 = 2
W = 3 or W = 4
Thus a 4x4 rectangle or a 3x6 rectangle meets the conditions.
