And you are left with almost a square. One less than the square of side n.

What would happen if the US government told the British government in no uncertain terms all RAF bases with USAF personnel now must follow the Constitution and us law, and if the UK tried to defy this, the US military would directly attack the UK?

If you cut off the end of that rectangle, you make it smaller, 2 * 3 and a separate nub of size 1 * 2

The basic answer is that you cross-multiply the values in each factor:
