Answer:

  • 3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is asking how many times the flower bed expanded:

  • 75/4 ÷ 25/4 =
  • 75/4 × 4/25 =
  • 75/25 =
  • 3
  • Previous area=25/4ft^2
  • New area=75/4

Expanded:-

[tex]\\ \star\sf\longmapsto \dfrac{75}{4}\div \dfrac{25}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \star\sf\longmapsto \dfrac{75}{4}\times \dfrac{4}{25}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \star\sf\longmapsto \dfrac{75}{25}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \star\sf\longmapsto 3times[/tex]
