yeah I just don't know how to do it with the ratio
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well since the area is 135 we know that b times h = 135 so what two numbers multiply do we get 135?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5 & 27
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so does that match out ratio? I dont think so
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I don't know how to do the ratios!

it just states that thats the ratio between the answers. when we reduce B and H we get 5 an 3. for this problem the answer for b was 15 and h was 9. so when we reduce we get 5 and 3. get it?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
kinda
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait, but 5 * 9 doesn't equal 135, it equals 45?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
15 and 9 equals 135
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh! I read it wrong.. sorry!
