Answer:

Perimeter is 128 in, length of each side is 16 in

Explanation:

2 : 4 = 1 : 2

Perimeter is the sum of sides.

Ratio of the perimeters is the same ratio as of the sides.

side A : side B = 1 : 2

Perimeter A : Perimeter B = 1 : 2

Perimeter of Octagon B is 2×64 = 128 in

With each side equal to 128/8 = 16 in
