Step-by-step explanation:
Hello! Remember you need to write complete questions in order to get good and exact answers. Here I'll assume that you want the interpretation of the expression:
![s* s](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/geography/middle-school/3q3pvfxtcnneq9it37vg5av2zdyu5gcnrq.png)
The easier interpretation is that we are talking about a square of sides
so the given expression would represent the area of the square. In other words:
![A=s*s \\ \\ A=s^2](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/geography/middle-school/qrito0meb9oasunj4lxbaowtzbb9r88roc.png)
For instance, if we have a square of sides
then the area would be:
![A=4* 4 \\ \\ A=16cm^2](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/geography/middle-school/jlyn5uv1n8yd85emzt0n1dpww4la5o8nw8.png)
The figure below shows the representation of this problem.
