Rhea draws rows and columns on a big piece of paper to make 16 same-sized squares. How many rows and columns does she draw? I

4 rows and 4 columns

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

16 same sized squares

Required

Determine the number of rows and columns

Since the shape formed is a square, then the following relationships exist:

can then be rewritten as:

Take square roots of both sides

implies that:

-3.396 = -3.4

-0.708 = -0.7

0.304 = 0.3

0.955 = 1

a negative exponent is translated as follows:

so, we have
