Question

A piece of wire is used to make 4 rectangle each of 7 cm and breadth of 5cm. If it is reshaped to form 6 identical squares, what is the length of each side of the square?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Side of the square is 4 cm

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Side of square =8 cm

Perimeter of square =32 m

Lenth of rectangle =10 cm

Therefore,

2(l+b)=32

10+b=16

b=6

Therefore, breadth = 6m

Now, area of square = side×side=8×8=64 cm

2

Area of rectangle = length×breadth=10×6=60 cm

2

Therefore, square encloses more area.
