Which area model can show 98^2 easily?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (100-2)^2 / subtraction square model

The direct answer is option A: (100−2)^2. Since 98=100−2, the square can be represented by the identity (a−b)^2=a^2−2ab+b^2. Thus 98^2=(100−2)^2=10000−400+4=9604. Option A is especially useful because 100 is a nearby round number, making the areas and products easy to calculate. Option B is mathematically possible because 98=90+8, but it is less convenient and does not use the nearest simple round number. Option C is not the correct representation of 98^2: 100^2−2^2 is a difference of squares, not (100−2)^2, and it equals 9996. Option D is the area of a 98 by 100 rectangle, not a 98 by 98 square. Memory cue: for a number near 100, write it as 100 plus or minus the small difference.
