Actually there can be infinite number of rectangles. Let me explain
you clearly
,
perimeter = 2(L +B) = 18
⇒L +B = 9

now, we can take any positive number, can be fraction also.

It should be noted that L or B cannot be Zero, because if it is zero, then rectangle could not be formed.
If it is asked, the length and breadth can only be a natural number, then possible dimensions are (length,breadth) as (8,1), (7,2),(6,3),(5,4)
then only 4 rectangles are possible
Otherwise, infinite number of rectangles are possible.

Perimeter =16
2(l+b)=16
l+b=8
So u can combine length and breadth
so that their sum is 8 in many ways to get perimeter of 16

sunitaagrawal09babu: Like 1+7
sunitaagrawal09babu: 2+6
sunitaagrawal09babu: Sorry l+b =9
sunitaagrawal09babu: Oh I'm correct
