for this question, you should find the area of each shape. So first you can find the area of square: 7/8 * 7/8 = 49/64 now you can find the area of the rectangle: 1/4 * 3 = 3/4 so you should know that 3/4 is equal to 48/64 now you can see that 49/64 is greater than 48/64 or 3/4 (which is the same) so the area of the square with 7/8 mile sides is larger that the rectangle that is 1/4 mile by 3 :)))) I hope this is helpful have a nice day
