LB = 343,000 

B = 343,000 / L 

minimizing perimeter is same as minimizing semi-perimeter S 
S = L + B = L + 343,000 / L 

S' = 1 - 343,000 /L^2 

setting S' to zero & taking the +ve value, 

L = sqrt(343,000) = 585.66 m 

since a rectangle with integer sides is wanted, 

dimensions = 585 m x 586 m
