Arectangle has an area of 20 square feet. a similar rectangle has an area of 180 square feet. what is the ratio of the areas of these similar rectangles?

1:9

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the first rectangle = 20 square feet.

The area of the second rectangle = 180 square feet.

The ratio of their areas:

Area of rectangle 1: Area of Rectangle 2=20:180

Next, we reduce 20:180 to its lowest form.

20:180

Divide both sides by 10

This gives the ratio of the areas as:

1:9
