Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Length of rectangle =
l

Width of rectangle =
(1)/(3) of l - 1 = (1)/(3)l - 1 = (l)/(3) - 1

A. Expression for finding area of the rectangle:

Area of rectangle is given as
length*width


Area = l((l)/(3) - 1)

Or


Area = l*(l)/(3) - l*1


Area = (l^2)/(3) - l

b. Expression for finding perimeter:

Perimeter of rectangle is given as
2(Length + Width)


Perimeter = 2(l + ((l)/(3) - 1))

Or


Perimeter = 2(l) + 2((l)/(3) - 1)


Perimeter = 2l + (2l)/(3) - 2)

c. Quotient of Perimeter divided by area:


2(l + ((l)/(3) - 1)) ÷
l((l)/(3) - 1)


2(l + ((l)/(3) - 1)) ÷
(l^2 - 3l)/(3)

Change the ÷ to × and flip the fraction on your right upside down.


2(l + ((l)/(3) - 1)) * (3)/(l^2 - 3l)


2l + 2((l)/(3) - 1) * (3)/(l^2 - 3l)
