Problema Solution
rectangle is 3 times length of corresponding side of small rectangle. how does area of large rectangle compare with area of small rectangle
Answer provided by our tutors
let
l = the length of the small rectangle
w = the width of the small rectangle
A1 = l*w the area of the small rectangle
3l = the length of the large rectangle
3w = the width of the large rectangle
A2 = 3l*3w
A2 = 9lw the area of the large rectangle
A2 = 9*A1
the area of the large rectangle is 9 times bigger then the area of the small rectangle.
