Answer:

7cm, assuming the question is phrased as noted below.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll interpret "If the length of a rectangle doubles its width." as "If the length of a rectangle is double its width.

Let L be the width, and L the length

L = 2W

The perimeter of a rectangle is 2L + 2W

We can use L instead of 2W,  and that gives us:

  21 cm = 2L + L

21 cm = 3L

L = 7 cm
