Answer:

40.64 cm x 40.64 cm

Explanation:

The directions say that 1 centimeter = 16 inches.

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

Multiply by 16.

16 inches = 40.64 centimeters

We know each length of the square is 1 cm or 16 inches, according to the above.

(btw problem says rectangle, a square can be a rectangle.)
