Question

A square has a perimeter of 28 ft. What is the length of each side?

Answer 1

7 Centimeters (CM)

Explanation:

You want to divide the perimeter by 4 to find the individual lengths. (28/4) Therefore each side of the square is 7cm long.

You are increasing all sides by a scale factor of 3.

This gives each side a length of 21cm

Hope this helped!

Answer 2

7ft

Explanation:

A square has 4 congruent sides so that means all sides are the same.

28 ÷ 4 = 7
