@nincompoop

OpenStudy (quickthing):

Please parth??

Parth (parthkohli):

They've represented a square in two ways.

OpenStudy (quickthing):

OK.

Parth (parthkohli):

OK, so they've made a square out of balls. (Heh.)

OpenStudy (quickthing):

Yeah.....

Parth (parthkohli):

Now what you want to see is that you can count the number of balls in two ways. Suppose that I make you a square like that with 100 balls on one edge. What is the number of balls in that square?

OpenStudy (quickthing):

The number is.... 1000?

Parth (parthkohli):

How did you get to that number?

OpenStudy (quickthing):

Parth (parthkohli):

OK, so do you mean that if I place a square with \(n\) number of balls on one edge, then the number of balls is \(n^2\)?

OpenStudy (quickthing):

Yes/

Parth (parthkohli):

Alright. Now we have that with us, remove the picture and try to look at it in another way. Open the question again and notice how the square is drawn.

OpenStudy (quickthing):

OK.

OpenStudy (quickthing):

Let me do that.

OpenStudy (quickthing):

LOL is it A?

Parth (parthkohli):

Actually, you know what, they're serving you the answer on the plate. Yes.

OpenStudy (quickthing):

OMG thanks !! XD

OpenStudy (quickthing):

*facepalm**
