Answer:

See Below

Explanation:

It is not given what the perimeter of the smaller or larger rectangle is. We will assume the perimeter of the smaller rectangle to be "10".

Now,

It says:

Perimeter of Larger is 2 GREATER THAN TWICE the perimeter of smaller

Assuming, perimeter of smaller is "10", twice of this would be:

2 * 10 = 20

Moreover, it is 2 greater than that, so

20 + 2 = 22

So, we can say

perimeter of larger rectangle is 22 (assuming perimeter of smaller rectangle to be 10)
