The side of the square is 4 cm. Find 6/16 squares, 3/8 squares. What is the area of these parts of the square?

In order to find the total area of a square, you need to multiply its sides with each other.

The area will be:

4 * 4 = 16 cm ^ 2.

We find a part of the area.

To do this, we multiply the total area of the square by the required part.

For 3/8 we get:

16 * 3/8 = 3 * 3 = 6 cm ^ 2.

For 6/16 we get:

16 * 6/16 = 1 * 6 = 6 cm ^ 2.

We find the area of two parts.

Let’s summarize the obtained values.

6 + 6 = 12 cm ^ 2.

Answer: The area of two parts of a square is 12 cm ^ 2.
