Answer: 225

Step-by-step explanation: If the whole area is 900 square inches you divide by the sides of the square 4 and divide by the total area 900. 900/4 = 225

The length of each side of the square is 30 inches.

Using the parameters given for our Calculation;

  • Area of square picture = 900 in²

Using the area of a square formula:

  • Area of square = s² ; s = side length

Now we have ;

900 = s²

s = 30

Hence, each side of the square is 30 inches.
