Wel-min makes a square quilt that has an area of 100 square feet.It has 25 square blocks, each the same size. What is the legth of each side of a block?
A 2 feet
B 4 feet
C 6 feet
D 10 feet
is the answer b 4 feet someone please help

Since the square root of 100 is 10 feet, the length of each side of the quilt is 10 feet.
The square root of 25 is 5, so there are 5 blocks on each side of the quilt.
10/5 = 2
If this isn't clear to you, use graph paper and draw a sketch of the quilt and its blocks.
Thanks Ms. Sue, for 'actually' explaining it and not just 'answering' the question like others.

To find the length of each side of a block, we need to calculate the square root of the area of the quilt divided by the number of blocks.
The area of the quilt is given as 100 square feet, and there are 25 blocks. So, we can calculate the length of each side of a block as follows:
Length of each side of a block = √(Area of the quilt / Number of blocks)
Length of each side of a block = √(100 square feet / 25)
Length of each side of a block = √(4 square feet)
Therefore, the length of each side of a block is 2 feet, not 4 feet. So the correct answer is A) 2 feet.
