Question

Find the area of a square with a side 2.4 m in

length. When necessary, round to the
nearest tenth.

Answer 1

The area of the square with a side length of 2.4 m is 5.76 square meters.

Explanation:

The area of a square is given by the formula:

Area = side x side

In this case, the length of one side of the square is 2.4 m. So, we can substitute 2.4 for "side" in the formula and get:

Area = 2.4 x 2.4

Area = 5.76 square meters

Therefore, the area of the square with a side length of 2.4 m is 5.76 square meters
