A Coast Guard ship patrols an area of 125 square miles. The area the ship patrols is a square. About how long is each side of the square? Round your answer to the nearest mile.

You do 125/4 which is 31.25, so to the nearest mile, it would be 31 miles per side of the square

11.18

the square root of 125 is 11.18.
each side is 11.18. to find the area you'd multiply one side by the other.

31.25 rounded to the nearest mile

31.25 so rounded would be 31

Yes this makes me want to sCREAM
