Question

A wire that is 48 centimeters long is shown below.


The wire is cut into two pieces, and each piece is bent and formed into the shape of a square.

Answer 1

Answer:

The sides of the square measure 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If we cut the wire in half, we have to:

48/2 = 24

We would have two 24 cm wires

With each wire a square will be formed, therefore the question I suppose must be how much each side of the square measures.

We know that the square has 4 equal sides, therefore:

4/24 = 6

The sides of the square measure 6 cm

Answer 2

The sides of the square measure 6 cm.

Calculation of the sides of squares:

Since A wire that is 48 centimeters long

In the case when  we cut the wire in half so it should be 50% of 48 i.e. 24

Also, the square does have 4 equal sides

So, the sides of the square should be

$= 24\div 4$

= 6 cm

hence, The sides of the square measure 6 cm.
