Karan covers an irregular leaf on grid paper (1 square = 1 sq cm). He finds 30 full squares. He pairs up partly covered squares: 18 of them are exactly half each, and another 4 are exactly quarter (1/4) each. What is the estimated area of the leaf?

Question

Accepted Answer

40 sq cm. Full = 30. Half squares = 18 × 1/2 = 9. Quarter squares = 4 × 1/4 = 1. Total = 30 + 9 + 1 = 40 sq cm.
