Question

The total length of the fence around a square field is 400m. Find the length of each
side of the field?

Answer 1

Answer:

• 100metres is the required length of each side of the field .

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question

It is given that,

• Total length of the fence around a square field is 400m

we have to find the length of each side of the field .

Since it is given "total length of the fence around a square field is 400m " Here the length required to fence the field is equal to "the perimeter of square "

As we know that,

• Perimeter of Square = 4×Side

by putting the value we get

→ 4 × side = 400m

→ side = 400/4

→ side = 100m

• Hence, the length of each side of the field is 100 metres .

Answer 2

Answer:

∴ The length of each side of a square is $100$ m.

Step-by-step explanation:

• In context with question asked,
• We have to find the the length of each side of the square field.
• It is given that, the total length of the fence around a square field = $400$ m.  
• We know that, square has four sides and the length of each side of a square is same.
• Perimeter of a square field is the sum of all sides of a square.
• So, perimeter of a square field = $400$ m
• The formula for perimeter of a square field is given by,

       Perimeter of a square field = $4\times side$

                                      ∴ $400=4 \times side$

                                      ∴ Side = $\frac{400}{4}$

                                      ∴ Side = $100$ m

• ∴ The length of each side of a square is $100$ m.
