Question

Which statement is true about the relationship between the areas of these two rectangles

Answer 1

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Answer 2

Hey there!

Let's find their areas first. Rectangle area is defined as length times width, so we have:

A- 10 * 4 = 40 units squared

B- 4 * 2 = 8 units squared

Let's try all of our answers:

A) If A had twice the area, it's area would be 8. No

B) This is true, as 40 is 8 times 5, so rectangle A has 5 times as much area.

Your answer is B.

Hope this helps!
