A square has a side measuring 1⅕ centimetres, a rectangle has length equal to two times its breadth, the rectangle has a perimeter (numerically) equal to the area of the square, what is the length of the rectangle? 

Area of square = 1.2² = 1.44 sq cm. Width of rectangle=w so length=2w and perimeter = 2(w+2w) = 6w = 1.44, w = 1.44/6 = 0.24cm. Length = 0.48cm.
