Question

Find the difference in the perimeter of two square having sides 3cm and 8 cm

Answer 1

perimeter= 4 * side
3*4=12
8*4=32
32-12=
20cm

Answer 2

Answer:

Hence, the difference between the perimeter of square having side 8 cm and 3 cm will be 20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In context to question asked,

We have to determine the perimeter of the square.

From the data given in the question,

We have,

Side of square = 3 cm and 8 cm

As we know that,

Perimeter of square is nothing but the sum of length of all the outer sides of square.

As we know that,

All the sides of square are equal.

So, formula for finding perimeter of square is $4 \times side$

So, for determining the value of perimeter of square we will put the value of side of square in above formula,

Thus we will get,

Perimeter of square having side 3 cm $= 4 \times 3 = 12\:cm$

Perimeter of square having side 8 cm $= 4 \times 8= 32\:cm$

Hence, required difference between perimeter of both the squares will be

$32\:cm - 12\:cm = 20\:cm$
