Answer:

D.The length is 3 times the width.

Explanation:

We are given that

Area of rectangle =
3x^2

We have to find that coefficient 3 what represents in given terms.

From given figure we can see that

Width of rectangle=x

Length of rectangle=3x

Area of rectangle=
length* breadth

Area of rectangle=
3x* x=3x^2

To find that coefficient 3 what represents we will compare between width and length of given rectangle.

Length of rectangle =
3* width=3x

It means length of rectangle is 3 times the width of rectangle.

Option D is true.
