Yes and no. A square by definition has sides of equal length and the area of a square is just 2 sides multiplied together (x*x=x2). So in the case of a square with area of 5 each side would be length sqrt(5). Now the sqrt(5) is an irrational number, so there is no way that the manufacture of "grid" would break the spacing of the grid such that it divides evenly into an irrational number. However, nothing stops you from drawing the square on the page and defining the length of the side to be exactly sqrt(5).

How many squares are in a 5 by 5 grid?

There would be 25 squares because to find the area of a square you take width, 5, times, height, 5. 5 x 5 = 25.


What is the area of a grid 7×5?

Whats 7x5? 35. That is your answer.


What is the perimeter of a square with an area of 25?

Since the sides of a square with area of 25 are 5 each (5*5=25) the perimeter is going to be 4 * 5 = 20


What is the area of square 5x5?

To find the area of a square, you can use the formula: Area = Side x Side. Plug in your numbers into the equation: Area = 5 x 5 The area is 25 units2.


How many grid squares should you shade to represent 0.49 ml of Hydrogen peroxide?

That depends upon how many grid squares you have in total and the largest value you have to represent. Wherever possible, you should arrange that each square that you have to shade represents either a divisor or a simple fraction of all the values you have to represent. With 0.49 ml as one of the values, it is unlikely that the values you will have to represent are all multiples of 0.49 ml; nor are they all likely to be multiples of 0.07 ml. So unless you use 1 grid square to represent 0.01 ml you are going to have to shade a fraction of a grid square. Once you have chosen how much each grid square will represent, or have been given the value to use, divide the 0.49 by this value to find out how many grid square to shade: If each grid square represents 0.01 ml, shade 0.49 ÷ 0.01 = 49 of them If each grid square represents 0.02 ml, shade 0.49 ÷ 0.02 = 24 1/2 of them If each grid square represents 0.04 ml, shade 0.49 ÷ 0.04 = 12 1/4 of them If each grid square represents 0.05 ml, shade 0.49 ÷ 0.05 = 9 4/5 of them If each grid square represents 0.10 ml, shade 0.49 ÷ 0.10 = 4 9/10 of them etc.
