    The answer to your question is the letter D.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Data

    First rectangle Second rectangle

    length = 3 length = 3

    width = 2 width = 2 + 4 = 6

    Process

    1. - Calculate the Perimeter of the first rectangle

    Perimeter = 2l + 2w

    Perimeter = 2 (3) + 2 (2)

    = 6 + 4

    = 10

    2. - Calculate the perimeter of the second rectangle

    Perimeter = 2 (3) + 2 (6)

    Perimeter = 6 + 12

    Perimeter = 18

    3. - Compare both perimeters

    Perimeter 1 is smaller than Perimeter 2 by 8 units
