Answer: 30 inches is the length of the sides.

Step-by-step explanation: Card tables are square. So you can take √900 = 30

Answer:
30

Explanation:
It’s pretty simple actually, you just need to get the square root of 900 by seeing what two equal numbers give you 900. The answer in this scenario would be 30 since 30x30 would give you 900. Since it is a square all sides are equal and your answer would only be 30.
Hope this helped you :)
