Question

What are a) the ratio of the perimeters and b) the ratio of the ratio of the areas of the larger figure to the smaller figure

The larger figure has a side of 28 yards

The smaller figure has a side of 8 yards.

My answer chooses

8/3 and 49/4
7/2 and 49/4
7/2 and 9/4
8/3 and 9/4

Answer 1

the answer is b

Explanation:

7/2 and 49/4

Answer 2

Assuming that the figures given are square such that the scale factor between them is equal to 28/8 which can be further simplified into 7/2. The ratio of the perimeter is also equal to this value, 7/2. However, the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of this value giving us an answer of 49/4.
