Answer:

82.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we make a proportion:

6.2(length A) / 5.6(width A) = 21.7(length B) / x(width B)

Cross multiply: 6.2 * x =( 21.7) * (5.6)

Divide both sides by 6.2: x = 19.6

So the width of rectangle B is 19.6. Now lets find the perimeter

19.6 + 19.6 + 21.7 + 21.7 = 82.6 cm

I hope this helped, please mark Brainliest, thank you!
