Let's build the equation counting how many x's and 1's are there on each side.
On the left hand side we have 5x's and 8 1's, for a total of
On the left hand side we have 3x's and 10 1's, for a total of
So, the equation we want to solve is
Subtract 3x from both sides:
Subtract 8 from both sides:
Divide both sides by 2:
Because if you multiply 2 different irrational numbers (like the following)
You will get an irrational answer.
BUT
if you multiply the same square root (which are both irrational, you get a rational number)
You will get an irrational answer.

Answer:
The artist used more of silver wire
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
step 1
we know that
The Perimeter of the square is equal to
where
a is the length side of the square
so
so
Each side of the square has a length of 10 in
step 2
Find the circumference of the circle
The diameter of the circle is equal to the length of the side of the square
The circumference is equal to
we have
substitute
step 3
Find the difference
