The fencing of a square garden is 20 m in length . How long is one side of the garden?
There are 4 sides to a square. So, ideally the equation would be written as 20/4 = ? Seeing as how 20 is the entire length of the square. 20/4 = 5
To find the length of one side of the garden, divide the total length of the fencing by 4 (since a square has four equal sides).
20 m รท 4 = 5 m
Therefore, one side of the garden is 5 meters long.
To find the length of one side of the square garden, we need to divide the total length of the fencing by the number of sides of the square.
In this case, the fencing of the square garden is 20 m in length. However, a square has four equal sides.
To find the length of one side of the garden, we divide the total length of the fencing by the number of sides:
Length of one side = Total length of fencing / Number of sides
Length of one side = 20 m / 4 sides
Length of one side = 5 m
Therefore, one side of the garden is 5 meters long.
