Since the perimeter marks out the distance around a shape, you can imagine yourself walking around a shape to find the perimeter. For a rectangle, you would walk the same length twice (once on each side) and the same width twice (once on each side). That's why you multiply both the length and the width by 2.
To find the perimeter, use the following formula:

Step 1: insert length and width into the formula

Step 2: solve
