Formula for perimeter,
P = 2L + 2w
2L + 2w = 16
2(L + w)= 16
L + w = 8
You need numbers that add to 8.
8 + 0 = 8
7 + 1 = 8
6 + 2 = 8
See how many you can come up with.
There might be any easier way, that I'm not thinking about.
Good luck
How many different rectangles can you make so that each one has a perimeter of 16 inches?
