Question

Lake Victoria has the largest surface area of Lakes in Africa. Surface area is 26,828 Square miles. How much larger is the surface area of lake superior then that of like Victoria

Answer 1

Answer:

1.18 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Surface area of Lake Victoria = 26,828 sq miles

How much larger is the surface area of lake superior than that of like Victoria?

The surface area of Lake Superior = 31,700 sq miles

Hence, taking the ratio of the surface area of the two Lakes :

Lake Superior / Lake Victoria

31,700 / 26,828

= 1.1816013

Hence, the surface area of Lake Superior is 1.18 times larger than the surface area of Lake Victoria.
