The perimeter of a shape will always be greater then the area of the shape

Not necessarily. For example, you can have a rectangle whose dimensions are 12 and 6. Length is 12 and 6 is the width.

The area (length × width) of the rectangle will be 72.

The perimeter of the rectangle (2l + 2w) will be 36.

So, in this case, the area was double the perimeter and the perimeter was not greater than the area of the shape.

Jim has run 5/6 of a mile so far. i hope that answers your question! good luck : )

Aand b are correctly balanced reactions. they have the same number of atoms in both sides of the reaction
