You can separate the figure into 3 rectangles and find the areas of them then add them together to find the total area ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rectangle 1 79 * 32 = 2528 m squared ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rectangle 2 79 * 32 = 2528 m squared ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rectangle 3
42 * 26 = 1092 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Add them together
Well, your ratio given is 18 to 4. so multiply both numbers (18 and 4) by some number and you will have an equivalent ratio. example: if you had 2 times as many people, then an equivalent ratio would be 18*2 to 4*2 = 36 to 8
