    First you have to find the area of the wire

    Area of a rectangle=L*W = 14*4=56

    Then divide that by 4 since a square has 4 equal sides

    56/4=14

    The length of a side of a square is 14 in

    First find the perimeter of the rectangle: 2w+2l which is 8+28=36. Then find the square root of 36 which is 6 so that is the answer.
