What is the perimeter of a square with sides of 5 cm, in meters?

Hence perimeter of square in meters is ##1/5## meter.

As all the sides of a square are equal

perimeter of a square is four times its one side.

As side of the square is ##5## cm.

Its perimeter is ##5xx4=20## cm.

Now ##100## cm. make one meter

so ##1## cm makes ##1/100## meter

and ##20## cm are ##20/100=(20xx1)/(20xx5)=1/5## meter.

Hence perimeter of square in meters is ##1/5## meter.
