A square is divided into four congruent rectangles. The perimeter of each of the four congruent rectangles is 25 units. How many units are there in the perimeter of the square?

there are 4 units of 10 , so your answer is 4(10) = 40

let s = one side of the square so s/4 = the shorter side of one of the rectangles while s = the longer side of a rectangle
10s/4 = the perimeter of one rectangle so 10s/4 = 25 s = 10 4s = perimeter of the square 4(10) = 40 = perimeter of the square = your answer

The perimeter of the square is approximately 33.33 units after calculating the side length based on the perimeter of the congruent rectangles. Each rectangle has a perimeter of 25 units, leading us to find the side length of the square. Using this side length, we then find the perimeter of the square by multiplying it by 4.
