    The width of the rectangle can be represented as x, and the length can be 5x. Therefore, the area of the rectangle is x (5x) = 84.

    Solve for x:

    6x=84

    *Divide both sides by 6*

    x=14

    So, the width of the rectangle is 14. To find the length, multiply 14 by 5. The length is 70.

    To find the perimeter, add up the length of each side:

    14+14+70+70=168

    The perimeter of the rectangle is 168.
