    If those Length and Width are consecutive integers then we can calculate the answer by following:

    let's consider that Length is n

    Then width will be n+1

    Perimeter of rectangle is equal to 2 * (L+W) in this case

    P = 2 * (n + [n + 1]) = 2 * (n + n + 1) = 2 (2n + 1)

    P = 318

    318 = 2 (2n+1)

    159 = 2n+1

    159 - 1 = 2n

    158 = 2n

    79 = n

    So this means that Length is 79 and Width is 80

    or vice versa, Length is 80 and Width is 79
