What are the area and the perimeter of a rectangle?

Considering a rectangle of length l and width w, we have that:

  • A = lw.
  • P = 2(l + w).

For a rectangle with a length of 3 units and a width of 4 units, we have that:

  • A = 3 x 4 = 12 square units.
  • P = 2(3 + 7) = 14 units.

Hence it is the correct option.
