Answer

P=24 cmP = 24 \text{ cm}

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Determine the side length of the square.

    The shape is drawn on a centimetre grid. Count the number of unit lengths along one side of the square.
    Counting the grid squares, the square has a side length of 6 units. Since it's a centimetre grid, each unit is 1 cm1 \text{ cm}.
    So, the side length s=6 cms = 6 \text{ cm}.

  2. Recall the formula for the perimeter of a square.

    The perimeter PP of a square is given by the formula:

    P=4×sP = 4 \times s
  3. Substitute the side length into the formula and calculate the perimeter.

    P=4×6 cmP = 4 \times 6 \text{ cm} P=24 cmP = 24 \text{ cm}

    The calculated perimeter is 24 cm24 \text{ cm}. The value provided in the image is also 24 cm24 \text{ cm}. Therefore, the provided answer is correct.
