P = 2L + 2W

Start by multiplying your values for each by 2 and then add them.  What do you have so far?

anonymous · Answer

Hint: Your final answer will be an integer multiplied by the square root of a small number.

anonymous · Answer

Part of what you will have to do is to simplify sqrt(128) and sqrt(200).  Can you simplify those?  If not, can you factor the numbers within the sqrt?

anonymous · Answer

Can you get at least one factor for 128 and one factor for 200?

anonymous · Answer

Is it that you don't know where to start with this problem?

anonymous · Answer

no....

anonymous · Answer

Okay, can you find any factors for 128?
