a = lw

2l + 2w = a

Answer:

2l + 2w = a

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle room has 2 bases so the length and width needs to be doubled.

So, 2l + 2w = a  is the right answer.

Note: I don't know if you just started the lesson but there needs to be one more dimension that needs to be recognized. This dimension is called height (h). The true equation is:

2l + 2w + 2h = a

or

2(lw + lh + wh) = a

^ above person is incorrect, it is a = lw
l x w = a
