The area of the rectangular field is 468cm².
Step-by-step explanation:
If, length is 18cm; width is unknown( let x represent width). Then,
Perimeter of a rectangle= Length + Width+ Length + Width
88= 18 + x + 18 + x
88= 36 + 2x
88-36 =2x
52= 2x
52/2=2x/2
26=x
•x=26cm
The width of the rectangle is 26cm.
Area of a rectangle= Length × Width
=18cm×26cm
= 468cm².
