Well since we know that the perimeter of a square is four times the length of one of its sides. We just have to divide 5 by 4 to get the length of one side:

5feet /4 sides = 1.25 feet

And to finish off, we have to convert feet to inches:

1 foot      = 12 inches
1.25 feet    x inches

x inches = 12 inches x 1.25 feet ÷ 1 foot
x inches = 15 inches

Therefore, each side is 15 inches long.

Hope this helps!

Each side length of the square is 15 inches

Given :

 the perimeter of a square is 5 feet,

We need to find the side of the square in inches.. Lets convert feet into inches

1 foot = 12 inches

5 foot =[tex]12\cdot 5=60[/tex] inches

So perimeter of the square is 60 inches

Perimeter of a square = 4 times side of a square

[tex]P=4s\\60=4s\\s= \frac{60}{4} \\s=15[/tex]

Each side length of the square is 15 inches
