Perimeter of squares
for 5th grade
Use the formula perimeter P = 4 x length to work out the perimeter of each square
Calculate the perimeter of squares
The perimeter of a square is the sum of the lengths of all four sides. It can be found by multiplying the length of one side by four.
For example, if the length of one side of a square is 4 units, the perimeter would be 4 x 4 = 16 units.
So, if you needed to calculate the perimeter of a square with a side length of 6 metres,
6 m + 6 m + 6 m + 6 m = 4 x 6 m = 24 m
