Answer:

The length of one side of the square is 12 cm.

Explanation:

If s represents the length of one side of the square, then the perimeter of the square is P = 48 cm = 4s, where 48 cm is given and s is to be determined.

Dividing both sides by 4, we get s = 12 cm.

The length of one side of the square is 12 cm.
