TITLE: Dividing a square with a hole into two
QUESTION [9 upvotes]: I was asked the following puzzle for an interview.
There is a square sheet. A smaller square hole is made on it (at a random place). How can I divide the rest of the sheet into two halves (in terms of the total area)?
How to solve this?

REPLY [12 votes]: Draw a line joining the centers of the two squares and cut along that line.
