Square A has an area of 25 square centimeters. Square B has a perimeter of 12 centimeters. If square B is placed within square A and a random point is chosen within square A, what is the probability the point is not within square B?	Answers
A) 9/25 B) 1/5 C) 16/25 D) 3/5 E) 6/25
I guess it's mean that square B is placed within square Aentirely.   Since, the perimeter of B is 12, then its side is 12/4=

3 and the area is 3^2=9   Empty space between the squares is   25-9=

16 square centimeters, so if a random point is in this area then it won't be within square B: P=favorable/total=16/25.   Answer: 16/25
