The area of the square is 16 cm2. Find what is the area of 3/4 of the square.

The required area, equal to 3/4 parts of the square, is expressed through the conditional variable “Y”.

Applying the condition of such a problem, we will have the given proportion: 1 refers to 16 cm ^ 2 as 3/4 refers to Y cm ^ 2.

Given the information of this proportion, we have the following equation: Y x 1 = 16 x 3/4.

The result of calculating such an expression looks like this Y = 16 x 3/4 x 1 = 4 x 3 = 12 cm ^ 2.

Answer: 12 cm ^ 2.
