Question

The ratio of the perimeters of two squares is 2:3. If the
area of the larger square is 324 square feet, what is the
length, in feet, of the side of the smaller square?

Answer 1

Answer:

12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

square root of 324 = 18

Side =18   18x18= 324

    18/3 = 6

    6x2=12

side small = 12

                  18x4 = 72 (perimeter big)

                   12x4 =48 (perimeter small)

      2:3

    48:72
