Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the Length of the rectangle.

Let W represent the width of the rectangle.

The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as

Perimeter = 2 (L + W)

Then substitute 12 in for the length and 6in for the width. It becomes.

Perimeter = 2 (12 + 6).

Perimeter = 2 * 18 = 36
