Question

Find the perimeter of a square that is 3 3/4 inches on a side. 7 inches 15 inches 12 inches 30 inches

Answer 1

Answer:

  15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the lengths of its sides. A square has 4 sides, all the same length. We can either add up the side lengths, or we can recognize that multiplication of one side's length by 4 is a useful alternative.

  perimeter = 4 × (3 3/4 in)

  = (4×3 +4×3/4) in

  = 12 in + 3 in = 15 in
