The area of a rectangle R with width 4 feet is equal to the area of a square S which has a perimeter of 24 feet. The perimeter of the rectangle R, in feet is :
A
9
B
16
C
24
D
26
Correct Answer: 26
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
