Answer:
1.962×10^8 cm
Explanation:
The area and perimeter formulas can be use to find the perimeter of this rectangle, given its area and the length of one side.
A = LW
P = 2(L +W)
__
Solving the area formula for width, we have ...
W = A/L
Using that in the perimeter formula, we find the perimeter to be ...
P = 2(L +W) = 2(L +A/L)
Using the given values for area and length, we find the perimeter is ...
P = 2(9.2×10^7 +5.612×10^14/(9.2×10^7)) = 1.962×10^8 . . . cm
The perimeter of the rectangle is 1.962×10^8 cm, or 1962 km.

Additional comment
The width is 6.1×10^6 cm, or 0.61×10^7 cm. Then the sum of length and width is (9.2 +0.61)×10^7 = 9.81×10^7 cm. The perimeter is twice that, or 19.62×10^7 cm = 1.962×10^8 cm. 1 km = 10^5 cm, so this is 1.962×10^3 km, or 1962 km.
