Question

@jim_thompson5910
Could you please help me with this problem?

Answer 1

I think it would be 6*4 = 24 ?

Answer 2

each side of the shaded square is not 6

Answer 3

It is 20

Answer 4

to get the side length x, you need to solve for x

6/(9+6) = x/15

oh I get x = 6, so you were right before in saying 6*4 = 24

I had the wrong set up at first

Yeah, I'm saying for my final answer I got 24.
