One method to divide a square into 4 equal parts is by drawing two perpendicular lines that intersect at the center of the square, creating four equal quadrants. Another method is to draw a horizontal line through the center of the square and a vertical line through the center, dividing the square into four equal parts. Additionally, you can draw two diagonal lines from opposite corners of the square to create four equal triangles. Another way is to draw a horizontal line through the center and two diagonal lines from the top corners to the midpoint of the bottom side. Finally, you can divide the square into four equal parts by drawing a horizontal line through the center and a vertical line slightly off-center.
I didn't know there is 'the 6 methods'. Here are some:
Might be divide it to rectangle
It is not possible to answer the question because we have no way of working out what your equal parts are.
Only once, there will only be eights parts however you divide it.
Four parallel lines through it.
16 divided by 4 equals 4
Might be divide it to rectangle
Draw a + then an X.....then you divided a square into 8 equal parts in one way.

Divide the square into five strips.

divide a square into eighths
Only once, there will only be eights parts however you divide it.
Cut it into 3 rectangles.
Draw a square and divide it into six equal rectangles, for example: ................................... ... ------------------ ... ... | . | . | . | . | . | . | ... ... | . | . | . | . | . | . | ... ... | . | . | . | . | . | . | ... ... | . | . | . | . | . | . | ... ... | . | . | . | . | . | . | ... ... | . | . | . | . | . | . | ... ... | . | . | . | . | . | . | ... ... ------------------ ... ...................................
Draw 2 parallel lines which will result in 3 equal rectangles within the same square.
To divide a square into 20 equal parts, you would first draw two lines parallel to one side of the square, dividing it into three equal parts. Then draw two more lines parallel to another side of the square, also dividing it into three equal parts. This creates a grid of nine smaller squares within the original square. Finally, draw two diagonal lines from opposite corners of the square, intersecting at the center, to create 20 equal parts.
Select any one side. Divide its length into 5 equal parts. Do the same to the opposite side. Join the corresponding divisions. You will then have 5 equal rectangular divisions of the square.
