B.

The reason being said Area is lw

or lengthwidth

Try 8*6=48 sq ft.

But perimeter is the outer edge..

l+l+w+w=P

8+8+6+6=28

Simple.

Thus, B, is your answer.

Alrighty, pretty much, A=bh and P=(b=h)2
If you divide 28 by 6, you are left with 8, making h=6 and b=8
If you plug this in for perimeter, you have 28

The answer is B. P= 28 feet
