To find the side length \( s \) of a square given the perimeter \( P = 96 \) inches, you can use the formula for the perimeter:
\[
P = 4s
\]
Now, substitute the given perimeter into the formula:
\[
96 = 4s
\]
To find \( s \), divide both sides of the equation by 4:
\[
s = \frac{96}{4} = 24
\]
Thus, the side length of the square is \( 24 \) inches.
\[
P = 4s
\]
Now, substitute the given perimeter into the formula:
\[
96 = 4s
\]
To find \( s \), divide both sides of the equation by 4:
\[
s = \frac{96}{4} = 24
\]
Thus, the side length of the square is \( 24 \) inches.
