- perimeter is different quantity and Area is different quantity both can not be campared.
- And, if campared so, then it's not true that perimeter is less than area ..as it can be greater. For ex :- if 2 unit is the side of square then, it's area is 4unit² but it's perimeter is 8unit . so, here perimeter is numerically greater than area .

Answer:
False.
Step-by-step explanation:
Its not necessary, area can be lesser than the perimeter in certain cases.
Suppose of the square on side-length 1 cm,
Using properties you can say, area of ( 1 cm )^2 = 1 cm^2
and thus, perimeter of the same square is 4( 1 cm ) = 4 cm.
What you got ?
Numerically, perimeter of square is greater then its area.
Same for a circle,
Area of a circle of radius 1 cm is π( 1 cm )^2 = π cm^2
Whereas perimeter is 2π( 1 cm ) = 2π cm.
In this case too, perimeter is greater than area.
Hence the given statement is false.
