The school is planning to add 2 new playgrounds. Each playground will be in the shape of a square that measures 10m by 10 m. What will be the area of the playgrounds?

Each playground will be 100 m2. Both playgrounds are 200 m2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of square is defined by a * a.

a = length of side. In this case a is 10 m

So, Area = 10 m * 10m

Area = 100 m2 (square meters). This is the area of one playground.

Two playgrounds will be the double, 200 m2
