The area model of a square with side (20−1) shows the square of which number?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 19

The correct answer is B, 19. The phrase “square with side (20−1)” tells us to calculate the side first: 20−1 = 19. A square’s area is found by multiplying its side by itself, so its area is 19 × 19 = 19². Therefore, the area model represents the square of 19. Option A, 18, results from subtracting 2 rather than 1. Option C, 20, is the original number before the subtraction and is not the actual side. Option D, 21, would result from adding 1 instead of subtracting it. The important distinction is between the side length and the area: the side is 19, while the area is 19². Memory cue: evaluate the expression inside the brackets before deciding which number is being squared.
