Answer:

The answer is Yes .. Ron is correct

Explanation:

This is because each side of the outer square is 2 units summing up to 8 units. So dividing each into two equal parts give 1 unit each.

Each side of the inner square divides the outer square into two making each side 1 unit.

The inner square thus takes 1 unit for it's side summing the perimeter to 4 units.
