1 answer

To find the perimeter of the rectangle, we first need to find the length of the rectangle.

Area of a rectangle = length x width
128 sq in = length x 8 in
Length = 128 sq in / 8 in
Length = 16 inches

Now that we have the length and the width of the rectangle, we can find the perimeter using the formula:

Perimeter = 2(length + width)
Perimeter = 2(16 in + 8 in)
Perimeter = 2(24 in)
Perimeter = 48 inches

Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 48 inches.
