Answer:

60 in

Explanation:

We are given that

Steve built a square dog pen of perimeter=240 in

We have to find the length of one side of Steve's dog pen.

To find the value of length of Steve's side we will use the formula of perimeter of square.

We know that

Perimeter of square=
4* side

Substitute the values in the given formula


240=4* side


Side=(240)/(4)=60

Length of Steve' s dog pen=60 in

Hence, the length of one side of Steve's dog pen=60 in
