Answer:

80miles

Explanation:

Area of a square grid = L²

L is the side length of the grid

Given that Area of the square = 400mi square

400 = L²

L =√400

L = 20miles

To get the number of miles travelled, we will find its perimeter

P = 4L

P = 4(20)

P = 80miles

Hence Jacob's family travels 80miles
