Ten times the perimeter of a square is 360 yards. Find the length of each side of the square.
Step 1. Perimeter P is when you add up all 4 sides of the square. P=s+s+s+s=4s where s is the side of the square.
Step 2. Let 10P=360=4s since ten times the perimeter of a square is 360 yards.
Step 3. Solving 10P=360 means P=36 after dividing 10 to both sides of the equation.
Step 4. Solving P=36=4s yields s=9 after dividing by 9 to both sides of the equation.
Step 5. ANSWER: Each side of a square is 9 yards.
I hope the above steps were helpful.
