    The length must be greater than 29 m

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Length of the rectangle: x. It must be 2 meters greater than its width w, so

    x = w + 2

    Perimeter of a rectangle = sum of its sides = 2*x+2*w

    P = 2 (w+2) + 2w = 4+4w

    The perimeter must be greater than 112 m, so

    4+4w > 112

    4w > 108

    w > 27, or

    x - 2 > 27

    x > 29

    The length must be greater than 29 m
