The side of a square is 25 cm. It is divided into n squares identical small squares. In each small square a circle is drawn touching all the four sides of it. Find the portion of the large square which is not covered by these circles.

Answer:
Side of square = 25 cm

So,
Every small square have side = 25n    cm
So,
Diameter of encircle of the small square = 25n  cm
Then,
Radius of each circle = 252n    cm

So, Area of one circle =  π252n2   
total number of circle  = n × n   = n​2
So area covered by all circle =  ​π252n2   ​× n​2

π ( ​156.25 )
= ​491.0714  cm2
And
Area of big square = 25 ​  ​×   25  = 625    cm2
So,
The portion of the large square which is not covered by these circles = 625  - 491.0714  

=  ​133.9286     cm2                              ( Ans )
