In summary, the new billboard has dimensions of 4 meters by 4 meters and an additional 96 square centimeters. It is larger than the old one, which typically measures 3 meters by 6 meters. The total area of the new billboard is 16.96 square meters. The larger size may result in higher advertising costs and there may be local regulations or restrictions on the size of billboards in certain areas. It is important to check with local authorities before installing a new billboard.

Solve x(x + 4) = 96 for x (which is the width).

The original post said "the area is 96 cm^2". That is impossible if the length is to be "4 m longer than its width". Prove It is assuming that the area is 96 m^2.
