shorter side : longer side = 3 : 7


Equate 3 parts tp 9 inches:

3 parts = 9 inches


Find 1 part:

1 part = 9 ÷ 3 = 3 inches


Find 7 parts:

7 parts = 3 x 7 = 21 inches


Area = Length x Width = 21 x 9 = 189 in²


Answer: The longer side is 21in and the area is 189 in²

Take the length of the shortest side divide that by the ratio of the shortest side 9/3 =3

Take that number 3 and multiply it by seven.
3*7=21

The shorter side is 9 inches, and the longer side is 21 inches.

To find the area, multiply 21 by 9.
The area is 189 inches
