The Question
Perimeter and area obviously have different units , but is it possible to have two rectangles in which their numerical values are equal ? If so, how many such rectangles are there and what are their dimensions? Assume the side lengths of the rectangles are natural numbers i.e. 1,2,3…. not fractional or decimal values.
You are NOT allowed to use algebra in answering this question.
You can submit your answer here. Even if you don’t manage to answer this question completely, share whatever you have done and what you plan to investigate next. How you think is more important than getting the right answer quickly!

(Note that commenting is disabled on this post so that nobody gives away the answer to someone who hasn’t solved it yet)
