Question

} A rectangle has an area of 25 square feet. A similar rectangle has an area of 200 square feet. What is ratio of the areas of these similar rectangles(smaller to larger, order always matter! )?

Answer 1

The ratio of smaller rectangle to larger is 1 : 8.

Explanation:

Given that:

Area of smaller rectangle = 25 square feet

Area of larger rectangle = 200 square feet

Ratio of areas of these similar rectangles;

Smaller rectangle : Larger rectangle

25 : 200

1 : 8

Hence,

The ratio of smaller rectangle to larger is 1 : 8.
