Answer:

The perimeter of the room is 60 feet.

Explanation:

If the area of the room is 224 square feet, and one side is 14 feet, then the other side is 224/14 feet, or 16 feet.

This gives us the dimensions of the room, 14 x 16.

From this, we can calculate the perimeter, which would be 2(14+16), or 60.

Let me know if this helps!
