Problem of the Month (July 2012)

Define an n-sliced square as a unit square with n consecutive corners (right isosceles triangles with area 1/8) cut off. What are the smallest squares that some number of n-sliced squares can be packed into? What about n-sliced squares packed into n-sliced squares? What about squares packed into n-sliced squares?
