3 <p>The product of multiplying a number by itself is the square of a number. Square is used in programming, calculating areas, and so on. In this topic, we will discuss the square of 2.8.</p>

4 <h2>What is the Square of 2.8</h2>

5 <p>The<a>square</a><a>of</a>a<a>number</a>is the<a>product</a>of the number itself. The square of 2.8 is 2.8 × 2.8. The square of a number can end in any digit depending on the<a>decimal</a>. We write it in<a>math</a>as 2.8², where 2.8 is the<a>base</a>and 2 is the exponent. The square of a positive and a negative number is always positive. For example, 5² = 25; (-5)² = 25.</p>

6 <p><strong>The square of 2.8</strong>is 2.8 × 2.8 = 7.84.</p>

7 <p><strong>Square of 2.8 in exponential form:</strong>2.8²</p>

8 <p><strong>Square of 2.8 in arithmetic form:</strong>2.8 × 2.8</p>

9 <h2>How to Calculate the Value of Square of 2.8</h2>

10 <p>The square of a number is multiplying the number by itself. So let’s learn how to find the square of a number. These are the common methods used to find the square of a number.</p>

49 <p>A garden measures 2.8 meters on each side. If the cost to plant flowers is 4 dollars per square meter, what is the total cost?</p>

51 <p>Okay, lets begin</p>

50 <p>Okay, lets begin</p>

52 <p>The length of the garden side = 2.8 meters</p>

51 <p>The length of the garden side = 2.8 meters</p>

53 <p>The cost to plant flowers = 4 dollars per square meter.</p>

52 <p>The cost to plant flowers = 4 dollars per square meter.</p>

54 <p>To find the total cost, we find the area of the garden,</p>

53 <p>To find the total cost, we find the area of the garden,</p>

55 <p>Area of the garden = a²</p>

54 <p>Area of the garden = a²</p>

56 <p>Here a = 2.8</p>

55 <p>Here a = 2.8</p>

57 <p>Therefore, the area = 2.8² = 7.84 m²</p>

56 <p>Therefore, the area = 2.8² = 7.84 m²</p>

58 <p>The cost to plant the garden = 7.84 × 4 = 31.36 dollars.</p>
