a wire is cut into several small pieces each of these small pieces is bent into the square of side 8 cm if the total area of the small squares is 28 square centimetre what was the original length of the wire?
Answers
Answer:
Each square has side 2 cm, so has area 4 cm². The total area of the squares is 28 cm², so there are 28 / 4 = 7 squares. Each square uses 4 × 2 cm = 8 cm of wire for its perimeter. So the length of wire is 7 × 8 cm = 56 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of one piece = Perimeter of the square =4×2 cm=8 cm
Let the number of pieces be n
We have given, total area of n square =28 cm²
⇒n×(side)² =28
⇒n×(2)²=28
⇒n= 28. =7

The original length of the wire
= Number of pieces × length of one piece
=7×8 cm=56 cm.
