Answer:

The ratio of the length of the banner to the length of the sign = 54/17

So....since they are similiar figures, the widths will have the same ratio

And the ratio of the area of the banner to the area of the sign will be the square of this ratio

Step-by-step explanation:

[54/17]^2 = 2916/289
