Dive into the world of square perimeters by discovering the smallest and largest perimeters achievable with 4 squares. Explore how whole number perimeters vary and investigate the possibilities of non-integer perimeters. See how adding a fifth square impacts the perimeter and develop a rule for predicting maximum perimeters based on the number of squares presented. Engage in a mathematical journey of patterns and rules.

More Questions What is the largest perimeter? Can you make all the whole number perimeters in between the smallest & largest? Can you have non integer perimeters? What happens with 5 squares? Is the perimeter bigger? Always? Can you find a rule so that If I tell you the number of squares, you can tell me the maximum perimeter?
