Question

The area of is 18 ft2 and the area of is 24 ft2. If , what is the ratio of LM to FG? A. 3:4 B. 9:16 C. D. 4:3

Answer 1

18/24 = 3/4 (divide top and bottom by 6)

answer is A. 3:4

Answer 2

Answer: The ratio of LM to FG is 3:4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

The are of ΔLMN = 18 sq. ft

Area of ΔFGH = 24 sq. ft

As we know the relation:

$\frac{Ar.\ \Delta LMN}{Ar.\ \Delta FGH}=\frac{LM}{FG}\\\\\frac{18}{24}=\frac{LM}{FG}\\\\\frac{3}{4}=\frac{LM}{FG}$

Hence, the ratio of LM to FG is 3:4.
