Answer:

1458 sq cm

Step-by-step explanation:

because each dimension of A is 3 tomes each dimension of B, that will mean that both the length and width of B are multiplied by 3 in order to get the length and width of A, so the area of B is length×width=162 and the area of A (in terms of B's dimensions) is 3xlength×3×width=9×length×width=9×162=1458 sq cm
