Can someone please help me if you do i'll give you a metal and let you ask me anything and i will tell you The perimeter of two similar figures is 15ft and 35ft. What is the ratio of the areas of the smaller figure to the larger figure? Question 1 options: 1) 3:7 2) 9:49 3) 27:343 4) 83:16

when you work out the AREA of similar figures the area is in proportion to the square of the ratio of the sides. So write down the ration of the sides (smallest divided by largest) THEN Simplify that Then Square it
0.42
That is not correct
You have to SQUARE the answer BUT It will be EASIER if you leave it as a fraction - that way you will recognise the answer more easily
what is 15/35 simplified (divide by 5 top and bottom)
3/7
