Question 401338
The Problem:
"a square play ground has a perimeter of 72m what is the lenght of each side of the play ground"


The Answer:
- A square has 4 equal sides

x = a side
72 = perimeter


4x = 72 {perimeter, of a square, equals adding all sides up or multiplying 1 side (x) by 4}
x = 18 m {divided both sides by 4}
