[3] 11 A famous artist wants to create an artwork that uses squares only. On the first day, he draws the perimeter of a square with length x m as shown in Figure 1. On the second day, he divides the square into 9 equal squares and draws the perimeter of the middl e square as shown in Figure 2. On the third day, he divides the remaining 8 empty squares from Day 2 into 9 equal squares, and draws the perimeters of the middle squares as shown in Figure 3. This procedure of “drawing the perimeters of the middle squares” is then repeated for subsequent days (see Figure 4 for his finished effort on Day 4).
