Question

Tyson has a game board that is made of 64 congruent sections.Each section is a square with 2.5-inch sides. What is teh area of the game board in square inches?

Answer 1

A = 400 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we will calculate the area of one square section:

`Area\ of\ one\ square\ section = (length\ of\ side)^2\\Area\ of\ one\ square\ section = (2.5\ inch)^2\\Area\ of\ one\ square\ section = 6.25\ in^2\\`

Since all 64 sections are congruent. Therefore, the area of the game board will be given as follows:

`Area\ of\ Game\ Board = A = 64*(Area\ of\ one\ square\ section) \\Area\ of\ Game\ Board = A = 64*(6.25\ in^2)\\`

A = 400 in²
