Solution

Explanation:
The given figure is correctly divided into four equal parts. Each part contains exactly 4 small squares, making the area equal. All parts have the same “L” shape, just rotated in different directions. The parts are also colored differently to show the division clearly.
Thus, both the area and shape of each part are the same, fulfilling the requirement of the question.
