problem_activity: Problem 1
a.   Create as many rectangles as you can with an area of 12 square units. Find the perimeter of each rectangle that you created. Then record the length, width, area, and perimeter of each rectangle in the table below:
| **                Length (units)               ** | **                Width (units)               ** | **                Area (square units)               ** | **                Perimeter (units)               ** |
