ANSWER :-
The length of the wire required for a similar 20 by 20 grid is 840 CM.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 9, 1 cm × 1 cm squares forming 3 × 3 grid
Therefore, in 20 by 20 grid there will be 20 × 20
= 400 1 cm by 1 cm squares
The length of wire required in 3 x 3 grid is
3(3+1) + 3(3+1)
= 3 × 4 + 3 × 4
= 24 cm
The length of the wire required in 20 by 20 grid
= 20(20+1) + 20(20+1)
= 20 × 21 + 20 × 21
= 420 + 420
= 840 cm
Hope this answer is helpful.
