  • B: 2x^2
  • largest: 4x^2
  • fraction: 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The area of a rectangle is the product of length and width:

  areaA = (2x)(2x) = 4x^2

b) areaB = (2x)(x) = 2x^2

c) The area of the largest rectangle is areaA = 4x^2

d) The ratio of areaA to the largest rectangle is ...

  (4x^2)/(4x^2) = 1

Area A is 1 of the area of the largest rectangle.
