Answer 1

shayad ans.
=2(4+2)
=13cm square

Answer 2

8 smaller squares can be obtained.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the rectangle are  8 cm and 4 cm.

So, area of the rectangle =  Length x Breadth = 8 cm x 4 cm

= 32 sq. cm

Now, Side of the smaller square = 2cm

So, area occupied by each square = Side x Side

= 2 cm x 2 cm = 4 sq cm

Now, Total Smaller Squares = Area of the Rectangle / Area of the Square

=  32 sq. cm / 4 sq. cm   = 8

Hence, 8 smaller squares can be obtained.
