Let's first find the area of the window:

Area of window = 4 * m * 4 * m = 16 * m^2

Now, let's find the area of the curtain:

Area of curtain = 3 * m * 2.5 * m = 7.5 * m^2

We're given that the area of the window is 2 square meters less than the area of the curtain, so we can set up the following equation:

16 * m^2 = 7.5 * m^2 - 2

Simplifying this equation, we get:

8.5 * m^2 = 2

m^2 = 2 / 8.5

m^2 = 0.2353

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

m = 0.4851

Therefore, the possible areas of the window are:

16 * m^2 = 16 * (0.4851)^2 = 3.7 square meters (rounded to one decimal place).
