Given : A rope is 2.82 meters long is divided equally into 6 pieces.
Two of the pieces are used to form a square,
To Find: length of one side of square
round your answer to the nearest centimeters
Solution:
rope is 2.82 meters
1 m = 100 cm
2.82 m = 282 cm
Rope length = 282 cm
Rope is divided equally into 6 pieces.
=> Length of 6 pieces = 282 cm
=> Length of 1 piece = 282/6 cm
=> Length of 1 piece =47 cm
=> Length of 2 pieces =2 * 47 = 94 cm
Perimeter of Square = 94 cm
Perimeter of Square = 4 ( side length)
4 ( side length) = 94
=> side length = 94/4
=> side length = 23.5 cm
round to the nearest centimeters = 24 cm
Hence length of one side of square is 24 cm rounded to the nearest centimeters
