Q. The ratio of the side length of a square to the square's perimeter is always 11 to 44. Peter drew a square with a perimeter of 2828 inches.\newlineWhat is the side length of the square Peter drew?\newline____\_\_\_\_ inches\newline
  1. Understand relationship: Step 11: Understand the relationship between the side length and the perimeter of a square.\newlineThe ratio of the side length to the perimeter is 1:41:4. This means the side length is 14\frac{1}{4} of the perimeter.
  2. Calculate side length: Step 22: Calculate the side length using the perimeter.\newlinePerimeter of Peter's square = 2828 inches.\newlineSide length = 14\frac{1}{4} of 2828 inches = 284=7\frac{28}{4} = 7 inches.
