Given equation is

We can solve it by subtracting 1/4 both side


So

On comparing x = 3.
SO the solution of equation is x = 3
The middle section is n(n+1)
The top row is n+2
The bottom row is 2n+1
So the rule for the total number of tiles will be the sum of the above rules...
s(n)=n(n+1)+n+2+2n+1
s(n)=n^2+n+n+2+2n+1
s(n)=n^2+4n+3
The numerator should be 8x
