since the side of the square is 15 cm, the area of the rectangle (since it is the same as the square) is 15^2 which is 225 cm^2. so, to find the breadth of the rectangle, take the area divided by the length (i.e. 225 ÷ 45) to get 5 cm. then to find the perimeter, it is the length + breadth multiply by two (i.e. (45 + 5) × 2) to get 100 cm.
hope it helps :)
