Question

If two rectangles have the same area, what do you know about the measures of their sides? Explain.

Answer 1

In this case, the rectangles have the same area so it means their length x wide is same.
That means if rectangle 1 has a longer length than rectangle 2, the width of rectangle 1 must be longer than rectangle 2 widths. They don't need to have same perimeter or width: length ratio.
