Question

The ratio of the side length of a square to the square's perimeter is always 1 to 4. Peter drew a square with a perimeter of 28 inches. What is the side length of the square Peter drew?

Answer 1

Answer: 7 inches

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the ratio of the side length of a square to the square's perimeter is always 1 to 4.

We are further told that Peter drew a square with a perimeter of 28 inches. The side length of the square Peter drew will be gotten by dividing 28 inches by 4. This will be:

= 28/4

= 7 inches

Therefore, the side length or the square is 7 inches.
