So, that’s a rectangle with sides 2 and 4.

n^2 - 1
The basic answer is that you cross-multiply the values in each factor:

n^2 - n + n - 1
What does it mean if someone asks if it’s pink?
Move the nub up to the top:
The more direct answer is to look at a rectangle with sides of n + 1 and n - 1, let’s go with n = 2
