Answer:
( i ) 2 cm
( ii ) 126 square pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
( i ) the length of the side of the squares will be the HCF of the length and breadth of the rectangle
so side of the square = HCF of 126 and 4
= 2
so length of the side of the square is 2 cm
( ii ) number of squares that can be cut out = area of the rectangle / area of one small square piece
area of rectangle = Length * Breadth
= 126 x 4
= 504 cm²
area of square = side²
= 2²
= 4 cm²
number of squares = 504 / 4
= 126
therefore number of squares that can be cut = 126
