Each square on Olivia's chessboard is 11 square centimeters.A chessboard has 8 squares on each sid.To the nearest tenth,what is the width of Olivia's chessboard?



Answer :

First, find the length of one side of a square:
Area = side²
11 = s²
s = √(11) cm

Since there are 8 squares on each side, multiply the length of one square by 8 to get the length of 8 squares.
√(11) * 8 = 8√(11) ≈16.5 cm

Hope this helps!
