Options aren't given in the question. However a concise explanation will be given.

Answer:

Length = 1 ; width = 2 and vice versa

Length = 0.5 ; width = 2.5 and vice versa

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is obtained using the formular :

Perimeter = 2(length + Width)

Hence the sum of the length and width of the rectangle multiplied by 2 should give 6

Hence, possible dimension will. Include :

A dimension whereby the sum of length and width gives 3

Length = 1 ; width = 2 and vice versa

Length = 0.5 ; width = 2.5 and vice versa

These are possible dimension of the rectangle which has a perimeter of 6
