Question

What is the perimeter of a square with a side length of 5/7 units.

Answer 1

Perimeter = 4× 
Where x = 5/7
4* 5/7
p= 20/7
The answer will be a mixed fraction
p= 2 6/7 units

Hope that helps!

Answer 2

ANSWER

The perimeter is

$\frac{20}{7} \: units$

or
$2 \frac{6}{7} \: units$


EXPLANATION

The perimeter of a plane figure is the distance around the figure.

The perimeter of a square is given by the formula,

$p = 4l$

Where

$l = \frac{5}{7}$
is the length of one side of the square.

We therefore substitute this value into the equation to obtain,

$p = 4 \times \frac{5}{7}$

This will simplify to

$p = \frac{20}{7} units$


or
$2 \frac{6}{7} \: units$
