Answer:The perimeter is the combined length of the four sides of a rectangle.

If the length is 14m, then those two combined long sides would equal 28 meters.

lf you subtract 28 meters from 40 meters, that leaves 12 meters, for the two sides that represent the width, or 6 for each side.

As you want the total perimeter to be less than 40, you would have to keep the width at less than 6 meters.

As an equation, it would look like this:

40 > 2L + 2W, and L= 14

40 > (2 X 14) + 2W, or 40 > 28 + 2W, then subtracting 28 from both sides

12 > 2W, then diving each side by 2

6 > W, or the width is less than 6 meters
