Answer:

A square has equal width and length. To find the area, you have to multiply the width by length but because they are the same length, you may some time see the formula written as L*L or $L^{2}$ .

The area of used up by the squares is 150sq feet. I found this by dividing 600 by 4. You can find an estimate by equating 150 the L*L. This gives you an approximate value of 12.
