Question

Find the ratio of the primeter to the area of the square

Answer 1

Given data:

The given figure of square.

The perimeter of the square is,

`P=4(x+3)`

The area of the square is,

`A=(x+3)*(x+3)`

The ratio of the perimeter to the area of the given square is,

`\begin{gathered} (P)/(A)=(4(x+3))/((x+3)(x+3)) \\ =(4)/(x+3) \end{gathered}`

Thus, the ratio of the perimeter to the area of the given square is 4/(x+3).
