Answer 2

Given :

Perimeter of a square garden = 884 meters

To find:

The length of a side of a square garden.

Formula to be used:

Perimeter of the square of side 'a' = 4a

Solution:

Let the length of the side of the square garden be  'a' units.

We can find the length of a side by using the following formula,

Perimeter of the square of side 'a' = 4a

The perimeter of a square garden is 884 meters.

Therefore,

884 = 4a

a = $\frac{884}{4}$

a = 221 meters

Final answer:

The length of a side of a square garden is 221 meters.
