Question

fill in the blanks. the perimeter of a square is 25 in. what length is each side? draw it here.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall square perimeter formula

The perimeter \( P \) of a square is given by \( P = 4s \), where \( s \) is the length of each side.

Step2: Solve for side length

We know \( P = 25 \) inches. Substitute into the formula: \( 25 = 4s \). Then, solve for \( s \) by dividing both sides by 4: \( s=\frac{25}{4}=6.25 \) inches.

Answer:

Each side of the square is \( 6.25 \) inches (or \( \frac{25}{4} \) inches). For drawing, sketch a square with each side labeled \( 6.25 \) in.
