Answer:

31 cm

Explanation:

A rectangle has 4 sides.

27 cm + 4 cm = 31 cm.

The perimeter is 31 cm.

If you are confused, to find perimeter you add all the sides up. That is why I added 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 / 4.

For inches or a different measure I recommend just converting it. You never mentioned the measure so I decided with cm.
