please help! If the area of a parallelogram is to remain constant, what change must take place in the base if the altitude is multiplied by three ( addition, multiply, divide ) by ( 3, 6 ) If the altitude is divided by two? ( multiply, divide ) by ( 6,2 )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Area = base x altitude for the area to remain constant, it could only be multiplied by 1 (called the multiplicative identity) But 1 = a number divided by itself As an example. 4 x 3 = 12 , how will 4 remain to be the same? divide 12 by 3 (which is the number you multiplied 4 with) So 4 x (3/3) = 4 In other words, just perform the opposite operation. Hope you get it!
