Solution

The correct option is B

4


We observe that we have 2 rows and 8 columns in the rectangle.

Total number of dots in given figure =2×8=16.

Let 'a' be the side of the square which we get after rearranging the dots of this rectangle.

Total number of dots in that square =a2

Since the total number of dots is 16

a2=16

a=16

a=24

a=22=4

So, the side of the square will be equal to 4.
