Arectangle has a length of 6 cm and a width of 3 cm. each side is doubled in length. what is the ratio of the areas of the two rectangles

Ratio of the area = 4 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : A rectangle has a length of 6 cm and a width of 3 cm.Each side is doubled in length.

To find : What is the ratio of the areas of the two rectangles.

Solution : Length = 6 cm.

Width = 3 cm .

Area 1 = length * width .

Area = 6 * 3

Area 1 = 18 cm².

If the each side is double :

Length = 12 cm .

Width = 6 cm .

Area 2 = 12 * 6 .

Area 2  = 72 cm².

Ratio of the area = .

Ratio of the area = .

Ratio of the area = 4 : 1

Therefore, Ratio of the area = 4 : 1
