Danica has laid out floor tiles so they form a rectangle with a perimeter of 18 inches. What is the difference between the greatest and least possible areas of the rectangle?

Least: 8 (length) x 1 (width) = 8 Greatest: 5 (length) x 4 (width) = 20 Difference: 20 - 8 = 12

The difference between the greatest and least possible areas of a rectangle with a perimeter of 18 inches is 12 square inches. The greatest area is 20 square inches and the least area is 8 square inches. Therefore, 20 - 8 = 12 square inches as the difference.
