Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

the relationship between lengths/dimensions and areas is that areas are created by multiplying 2 dimensions.

when you quadruple (×4) the dimensions, then the areas are growing with the square of the factor (×4×4 = ×16), because the factor goes twice into the multiplication : one time for every dimension involved.

so, quadrupling the dimensions would multiply the areas by 16.

Make the fractions improper to multiply.2 1/5 becomes 11/5 and 1 3/4 becomes 7/4. multiply the numerators then multiply the denominators. you get 77/20, which is simplest form. don't let teachers feed you that bs about it having to be a mixed number. an improper fraction is way more useful.
