A square with a perimeter of 48 cm was cut into four identical small squares. What is the sum of the perimeters of all the small squares in centimeters?
Show hints
- The side of the large square is 48 ÷ 4.
- A small square has half that side length. Find the perimeters of all four small squares.
Show the answer and solution
Answer: 96
The side of the large square is 12 cm, the small one is 6 cm. Four perimeters of 24 cm each give 96.
