You want to know the side length of the square swimming pool. Explain how you can use the perimeter then find the side length to the nearest yard. The perimeter of the pool is 100 yards. Please solve due in 20 minutes

Respuesta :

Its a square pool and its perimeter is 100 yards.

We know that a square has 4 sides with the same length so we can give a square perimeter by the sum of their 4 sides

Lets call the side "l" and since we have 4 of them we need to sum it 4 times

l + l + l + l = perimeter

4l = perimeter

We know the perimeter

4l = 100

Divide both sides by 4

4l/4 = 100/4

l = 25

So the side length is equal to 25 yards
