Len is baking a square cake for his friend's wedding. When served to the guests, the cake will be cut into square pieces 1 inch on each side. The cake should be large enough so that 121 guests each get one piece. How long should each side of the cake be?

You would just need to take the square root of 121 since it is square. So:
√121= 11 inches per side

Len needs to bake a square cake that is 11 inches on each side to serve 121 guests with 1-inch square pieces. This is calculated by determining the area required for the cake, which is 121 square inches, and finding the square root for the side length. Thus, the side length comes out to be 11 inches.
