    P = 2 (L + W)

    P = 2 (110 + 60)

    P = 2 (170)

    P = 340

    A = L * W

    A = 110 * 60

    A = 6600

    so the perimeter is 340 and the area is 6600

    same pyramid, smaller area ...

    L = 120

    W = 50

    P = 2 (120 + 50)

    P = 2 (170)

    P = 340 ... same perimeter

    A = L * W

    A = 120 * 50

    A = 6000 ... smaller area

    so the other rectangle can have a length of 120 yds and a width of 50 yds to have the same perimeter and a smaller area
