Question

Four squares are joined together to form one large square if the perimeter of one of the original squares of 8X units what is the perimeter of the new larger square

Answer 1

Answer:

16 x units

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a original square= 8 x units

Perimeter of a square= 4× side

Side of a square = $\frac{perimeter}{4}$

Side of a square = $\frac{8x}{4}$

Side of a square= 2 x units

since four square are joined together to form a single square

So each side of a bigger square=   4 x units

Perimeter of a new bigger square= 4 × 4 x units

Perimeter of a new bigger square= 16 x units

Hence, the correct answer is 16 x units
