Answer:

  • A = 20, B = 1, C = 1

Explanation:

From the given details and the model we can see

Given

  • A * 13 = 260, area of bigger rectangle,
  • C * 13 = B, area of smaller rectangle,
  • 260 + B = 273, total area.

Find the values

  • A = 260/13 = 20
  • B = 273 - 260 = 13
  • C = 13 / 13 = 1
