A circular hole of diameter 11.1 cm is cut out of a uniform square of sheet metal having sides 22.2 cm, as in the figure. What is the distance between the center of mass and the center of the sqaure?
i need some serious help with cm, i dont get this at all.

U might consider The removed part as negative mass

Where is the circular hole located (no fig shown)
If it is removed from centre than the CM wont change

since considering Centre of square as origin
X_{cm}= - \frac{\pi 11.1}{32}
Y_{cm}= - \frac{\pi 11.1}{32}
