Answer:

False.

Explanation:

The formula that is used to find the area of a rectangle is given by :

A = l×b

Where,

l is length and b is breadth

If area of a rectangle is 6m², it means we need to find the factors of 6. The factors of 6 are 2 and 3. If we multiply 2 and 3, we get 6.

Other possibility can be 1 m by 6 m because if we muliply 1 m and 6 m, we get 6m².

It means there are more than one possibiliy about the length and breadth of the rectangle.

Hence, the given statement is not true.
