Answer 2

Here we are given that nine squares are arranged together to form a larger square.

Now, each small square have a side of 5 cm

We have to find the perimeter of the larger square.

Now, as there are 3 squares in each row and column

The side of the larger square  = 3 × 5

                                                 = 15 cm

Perimeter of larger square = 4 × side

                                            = 4 × 15

                                             = 60 cm

Hence, the perimeter of the larger square will be 60 cm
