6 units per side of square
2 units per circle diameter
A=pi r squared, right?
So Area = Pi x 1
So area of each circle is Pi sq units- right?

oracle is right in providing the maximum size for the circles.
strictly speaking however the question cannot be answered, because it does not ask for the biggest possible size, and it doesnt demand the circles to fill the square completely, which means the circle may be any size smaller than that. so the correct answer would be:
there is insufficient information to resolve the question.
it is probably a oversight, and the desired answer is pi sq units... but i have seen questions like this used in evaluations... so it might be a good idea to give both answers.

If the circles all overlap completely the answer is 9pi, if they don't overlap but tile the square the answer is pi (Sq units)- They can be infinitesimal then the answer is zero. The question is vague on the overlap and filling, so there are an infinite number of answers bounded between and including zero and 9pi square units - Joe

The Radius Of each circle will be 1units.
(ratio of diameter to side = 3:1)
area of 1 circle is = pi.1.1= pi square units
If you dont understand this , draw a diagram and learn yourself!

once you've a sq. of customary section, you could actual paintings out the diameter of a circle that could want to have the same section - you purely multiply the sq. section with information from 4, divide that with information from pi and take the sq. root of the answer. (or basically multiply the size of your sq.'s side with information from a million.28379167.....). however, once you've a circle and also you want to construct a sq. of the same section making use of straightforward geometric concepts, i.e. with a compass or dividers and a immediately-side you're out of success. it really is termed "squaring the circle" and many historic geometers drove themselves up the wall attempting to do it - till analytical geometry and algebra produced the information as to why it isn't accessible. yet another one is trisecting any attitude from straightforward geometry, without angular length.

radius of one circle is 1sq unit
area of circle is (pie*radius squared)
=3.14*1squared
=3.14*1
=3.14
Area of 1 circle is 3.14 square units
