Solution

The correct option is C
$28 c m$

If $l$ is the length of the rectangle and $b$ is its breadth, then its perimeter is given by:-

$P = l + b + l + b = (2 \times l) + (2 \times b)$

Given $l = 6 c m a n d b = 8 c m$

Then, perimeter of the given rectangle is,

$P = (2 \times 6) + (2 \times 8) = 12 + 16 = 28 c m$
