Answer:

48

Explanation:

The area of a triangle is base
b times height
h divided by
2. You can use the first triangle to solve for the height:
9\cdot h/2=27 means that
h=6. The larger triangle is proportional to the smaller one. In fact, it is
1.\bar3 times larger. This means that the height of the larger triangle is
6\cdot1.\bar3=8. Putting all of this together, you can then calculate the area:
12\cdot8/2=48.
