According to the question, The length of a rectangle is 45 inches and the width is 8 inches, a similar rectangle has a width of 24 inches it means its length is 45 inches because rectangle is same only its width is changed but length is remain same

now perimeter of new rectangle= 2(L+W)

where L=45 inches and W=24 inches

Perimeter of new rectangle=2(45+24)

                                                  =2(69)

                                                  =138 inches
