-----> is the area of the square
Divide by 2
step 3
Find the area of the space on the plate that is NOT covered by the napkin

The area of the space on the plate that is NOT covered by the napkin, is equal to subtract the area of the square napkin folded (is a half of the area of the square napkin) from the area of the plate
so
simplify
