Answer:

6.25 %  of area of Large triangle =  area of smallest triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of large triangle L = (1/2)*base*height

L = (1/2)*(44 m)* h

L = 22*h  square m.

2nd equilateral triangle area:  S =(1/2)*(22 m)*(0.5h)

S = 5.5*h sq. m.

3rd smallest equilateral triangle area : T = (1/2)*(11 m)*(0.25h)

T = 1.375*h sq. m

-----

Find percent P  where  T = P* L,     1.375*h = P * 22*h

P = 6.25%  = 0.0625

Fofino [41]
So .. in 1foot, there are 12inches... thus, in 15feet, there are 15*12 inches

how many in 3/4 of an inch?  well  \bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
feet&inches\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
15&15\cdot 12\\
x&\frac{3}{4}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{15}{x}=\cfrac{15\cdot 12}{\frac{3}{4}}\implies \cfrac{15}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{15\cdot 12}{1}}{\frac{3}{4}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{15}{x}=\cfrac{15\cdot 12}{1}\cdot \cfrac{4}{3}\implies \cfrac{15}{x}=\cfrac{15\cdot 12\cdot 4}{3}

solve for "x"
