The perimeter of the small square is 8 cm. Of these four squares, one large square was made. Find its perimeter.

1. Let us find the side a of a small square if it is known that its perimeter p is 8 centimeters.

p = 4 * a;

a = 8 cm: 4 = 2 cm.

2. It is known that in a large square, made up of four small squares, the side will become twice the side of the small one and will be equal to 2 * a cm.

3. Calculate the perimeter P of the resulting large square.

P = 4 * 2 * 2 cm = 16 cm.

Answer: The perimeter of the resulting square is 16 centimeters.
