Question

The area of a square sandbox is 46 ft.². The nearest foot what is the perimeter of the sandbox?

Answer 1

It is given in the question that

The area of a square sandbox is 46 ft.².

Let the length of the side of the square sandbox is x ft .

And formula of area of square is

`Area = side^2`

Substituting the given value of area

`46 = side^2`

We need to get rid of square, and for that we take square root on both sides

`√(46)=side`

And the formula of perimeter of square is

`Perimeter=4*side`

`Perimeter=4√(46)=27ft`
