    5456 sq. inches

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let width = w,

    Then length = w + 26

    Perimeter = 2[length + width]

    2[ (w + 26) + w] = 2[2w + 26] = 4w + 52

    Perimeter given is 300

    So, 4w + 52 = 300

    4w = 248

    w = 248/4 = 62

    length = 62 + 26 = 88

    Area = length * width

    Area = 88 * 62 = 5456 sq. inches
