The perimeter of a square is given by the formula:
\[
P = 4s
\]
where \( P \) is the perimeter and \( s \) is the length of one side of the square. If the perimeter is represented by \( x \), we can set up the equation:
\[
x = 4s
\]
To find the length of one side \( s \), we can solve for \( s \) by dividing both sides by 4:
\[
s = \frac{x}{4}
\]
Thus, the expression that represents the length of one side of the square is:
\[
\frac{x}{4}
\]

P = 4s
