Answer:

A = 5*5=25

P = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

If a square has an area of 25 ft then we need to look at the GCF

1,25 5,5 25,1

since it's a square its sides are equal so 5,5 are our length and width.

5 * 5 = 25

the perimeter is all sides added together, so if all sides are equal to 5 the perimiter is

5+5+5+5 = 20
