    12 square feet

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The area of a square is the square of its side length.

    The area of the whole garden is (8 ft) ² = 64 ft².

    The area of the center section is (4 ft) ² = 16 ft².

    The remaining area is ...

    64 ft² - 16 ft² = 48 ft²

    One fourth of that area is ...

    (48 ft²) / 4 = 12 ft²

    Each of the 4 equal sections is 12 square feet.
