A rope 40m long is used to form a rectangle. If the length of the rectangle formed is 4m longer than the width. Calculate the area of the rectangle

96 sq. m

Step-by-step explanation:

If the width is x, the length is x + 4 and since perimeter = 2 * (length + width), we can write:

40 = 2(x + x + 4)

40 = 2(2x + 4)

20 = 2x + 4

16 = 2x

x = 8 so x + 4 = 12, therefore the area is 8 * 12 = 96 square meters.
