Answer 1

48

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a square is A = s². Plug in each value and see if is in between 2200 and 2400.

A = s²

A = (46)²

A = 2116

A = s²

A = (48)²

A = 2304

A = s²

A = (50)²

A = 2500

A = s²

A = (44)²

A = 1936

The only value that fits in between 220 and 2400 is 48.
