Area of square plate = (Side)2 = (2d)2= 4d2Area of circular plate = ? (d/2)2= ?d2/4? Number of square plates = [(4d2)/4] / [(?d2)/4]= (4 x 4)/? ? 5Since, nearest integer value is 5.
let the side of the square be x meterslength of two sides = 2x metersdiagonal = 2 x = 1.414x m saving on 2x meters = .59x m saving % = 0 . 59 x 2 x * 100 % = 30% (approx)
