She is used:
350 ft - 110 ft = 240 ft of fence
Perimeter of a square :
P = 4 a
4 a = 240 ft Divide both sides by 4
a = 60 ft
350 ft - 110 ft = 240 ft of fence
Perimeter of a square :
P = 4 a
4 a = 240 ft Divide both sides by 4
a = 60 ft
Total fence - Remaining fence = Fence used for the square
Let's calculate:
350 feet - 110 feet = 240 feet
Now, we divide the fence used for the square by 4:
240 feet รท 4 = 60 feet
Therefore, the length of one side of the square is 60 feet.
First, let's find out how much fence she used to enclose the square. Since all sides of a square have the same length, we can assume the square has sides of length 'x'. The perimeter of a square is given by the formula: perimeter = 4 * side length.
In this case, Marcia has used 350 feet of fence to enclose the square. Therefore, we have: 350 = 4x.
Now, we can solve for 'x' by dividing both sides of the equation by 4: 350 / 4 = x. Simplifying further, we get 87.5 = x.
This means that each side of the square has a length of 87.5 feet.
