If the area of a square table is 500 inches squared. what is the length of one side

Each side is 125 inches because 500/4 is 125

22.361

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of 500 is 22.360679775

Make sure to round the number up or down according to the right number of decimals

22² = 484

23² = 529

A quick way to double check your work is to find two numbers nearest your square to find a number that matches for the solution if you plug it in.

Be careful not to confused perimeter with area. Perimeter for a square is P = 4x where area is A = x². Think of a perimeter as if you have to walk the perimeter of a building you would walk around the building, but if you were laying new tiles in your basement, you need to know the area, the amount of space inside the perimiter.
