Step-by-step explanation:
Solving (a):
Given
Shape: Rectangle
Required
Calculate the perimeter.
Area is calculated as:
Where
and
Substitute 64.8 for Area
Make L the subject:
Perimeter is calculated as:
Substitute 64.8/W for L
To solve further, we take the derivative of P and set it to 0, afterwards.

Recall that:
So:
The perimeter is:
Solving (b):
Given
((1 Group of 10 tenths) and (1 group of 8 tenths))/(6 groups of 3 tenths)
Required
Solve
So, the expression becomes:
((1 Group of ) and (1 group of
))/(6 groups of
)
This gives:
((1 Group of ) and (1 group of
))/(6 groups of
)
Group means product, so the expression becomes:
And, as used here means addition
Simplify:
