Question 55

Fill in the blanks to make the statement true.

Area of a square of side 6 m is equal to the area of ___ squares of each side 1 cm.

Answer 1

Let number of squares having side 1 cm = x
According to the question,
Area of square with side 6 m = Number of squares x Area of square with side 1 cm $\left[\right(\because {\text{area of square = (side)}}^2$]
$\therefore (6m{)}^2=x\times (1cm{)}^2\Rightarrow (600cm{)}^2=x\times (1cm{)}^2\Rightarrow 360000c{m}^2=xc{m}^2\Rightarrow x=360000$
$\therefore$ Number of required squares = 360000
