Answer:

The best estimate is 10. Trust me, I did this assessment too.

Explanation:

2.59 x 4 = 10.36. So it's 10.

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The perimeter is all of the sides of a shape added up.

Since all of the sides on a square are the same and we know one side, we just multiply it by four.

2.59(4)=10.36

Therefore, the patio is about 10.56 meters.

I hope that this helps! :D
