Answer:
Only one option is correct from the information provided.
c. 12/192
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the area of a rectangle is given by:
[tex] = l \times w[/tex]
The larger rectangle has length of 16 and a width of 12.
The area of the larger rectangle is
[tex]12 \times 16 = 192[/tex]
The smaller rectangle has length of 4 and a width of 3.
The area of the smaller rectangle is
[tex]3 \times 4 = 12[/tex]
The ratio of the smaller rectangle to the larger rectangle is
[tex] \frac{12}{192} [/tex]
When you reduce this fraction , you obtain:
[tex] \frac{1}{16} [/tex]
