Question

Two squares have perimeters of 25 yards and 100 yards respectively. How many times greater is the perimeter of the larger square?

Answer 1

Answer:

The perimeter of the larger square is $4$ times greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the perimeter of the larger square

y----> the perimeter of the smaller square

we have

$x=100\ yd$

$y=25\ yd$

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{100}{25}$

$\frac{x}{y}=4$

$x=4y$

therefore

The perimeter of the larger square is $4$ times the perimeter of the smaller square
