Question:

Answer:

Gregory 's  rectangle is larger in area.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of the rectangle  Fiona draws =  24 square centimetre

Area of the rectangle Gregory draws =  24 square inch

To Find;

Which rectangle has larger area = ?

Solution :

To compare the areas of the rectangle that Fiona and Gregory draws, they must be same units

so lets convert square centimetre to square inch

1 square centimetre = 0.155 square inch

then

24  square centimetre  = 0.155  x  24 = 3.72001  square inches

So the area of the rectangle that Fiona draws in  square inches  is =  3.72001  square inch

Thus

3.72001 < 24

The area of the rectangle that Fiona draws lesser than the area of the rectangle that Gregory draws
