Question: 79

4. If a square has a perimeter of 88, what is the length of each side?

  • A. 4
  • B. 11
  • C. 22
  • D. 44

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

The correct answer is (C). The perimeter of a square is found by summing the lengths of each side. Because the lengths are equal on a square, you can multiply one side by 4 to get the perimeter. Therefore, 4s = 88, so s = 22.
