Answer is 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of square = side × side
Area of square chessboard = 576 square unit
Length of an individual side = square root of 576
= 24
Therefore, 24 × 24 = 576
Hope it's make you understand
The side length of each small square on the board is 3 cm.
Explanation:
As the checkerboard has an area of 576 cm2,
its each side is √576
= √2×2−−−−−×2×2−−−−−×2×2−−−−−×3×3−−−−−
= 2×2×2×3=24 cm.
As each side of the board is made of 8 small squares,
the side length of each small square on the board is 248=3 cm.
