The perimeter is (2 x 20) + (2+15) = 70 linear feet. The area is actually 300 square feet or 20 x 15.

first of all, if it's 20 x 15 it has an area of 300 square feet. The perimeter is the sum of all four sides, 20+15+20+15= 70. So, you just had them mixed up....you had the perimeter, but not the area.

The perimeter is 70 ft. But the area is actually 300 ft, not 70.

If you're looking for total area, it's length x width.
In your case, it's 15 x 20, which is 300 square feet.
Hope this helps!
