    To get the largest area, the length and the width have to be as close as possible, if not the same.

    Given Perimeter = 176 unit.

    Length = 176 : 4 = 44 units

    Area = Length x Width

    Area = 44 x 44 = 1936 units²

    1936 units² is the largest possible area, given that the perimeter is 176 units. The dimension being 44 by 44
