Answer:

Explanation:

The number of square units required to fill a square is the area.

Area of a square = side × side

Area of a square = side2 square units

Area of a square field = 479 ft2 [Given]

So the side can be determined by:

Length of a side of the field = √479 = 21.9 feet

Therefore, the length of a side of the field is 21.9 feet.
