Answer:

5456 sq. inches

Explanation:

5456 sq. inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let width = w,

Then length = w + 26

Perimeter = 2[length + width]

2[(w +26) + w] = 2[2w + 26] = 4w + 52

Perimeter given is 300

So, 4w + 52 = 300

4w = 248

w = 248/4 =62

length = 62 + 26 = 88

Area = length × width

Area = 88 × 62 = 5456 sq. inches
