Answer:
The answer to your question is Area = 37500 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
lawn 1 lawn 2
width = 550 ft width = 250 ft
Area = 181500 ft² Area = ?
Process
1.- Find the length of lawn 1
Area = length x width
-solve for length
length = Area/width
-Substitution
length = 181 500 ft²/ 550
-result
length = 330 ft
2.- Find the length of lawn 1 using ratios and proportions
550 : 330 :: 250 : x
x = (250 x 330) / 550
x = 150 ft
3.- Find the area of lawn 2
-Substitution
Area = 250 x 150
-Result
Area = 37500 ft²
