Rug D

Rug C

Answer 1

If Kristen is looking for a rug that is similar to rug A, she would likely choose rug D. Option C

What makes rug D similar to rug A?

Kristen is interested in style more than she is interested in size. If she was interested in size, rug B would have been a better option.

Only rug D is designed as rug A. rug D is similar to rug A in style but is exactly half the size in both dimensions.

If Kristen is looking for a rug that is similar to rug A, she would likely choose rug D, despite its smaller size, because it maintains the same proportion and style.
