Question

the area of a square sandbox is 83 square feet. to the nearest foot, what is the perimeter of sandbox?

Answer 1

$Area=bh$
$b=base$
$h=height$

Since a square has 4 equal sides, we can √83 to give us each side. This being $9.11 feet$

$perimeter=9.11+9.11+9.11+9.11=36.44$

$Answer: 36$ to the nearest foot
