Question

A square picture frame is 2 inches wide. The area of the picture is one-forth of the total area of the picture and frame. What are the dimensions
a 3x3 b 2x2 c 8x8 d 4x4

Answer 1

let x denote the width and height of the pic. So x^2 is the area of the pic and area of frame is 4.

x^2 = 1/4 (x^2+4)
x^2= 0.25x^2 + 1
3x^2 = 4
x^2 = 4/3
