Two identical squares are attached to each other by their sides so that a rectangle is obtained. The perimeter of this rectangle is 24cm. Find the perimeter of the square?

Let’s find the side of the square, since it is known that the perimeter of the rectangle is 24 cm:

24: 6 = 4 cm – since the two sides of the squares are inside the rectangle, then 6 sides remain.

4 * 4 = 16 cm.

Answer: The perimeter of the square is 16 cm.
