Answer:
14.4 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of Area of rectangle R to area of rectangle S = square of the length of rectangle R to square of lthe ength of rectangle S
Let the area of rectangle S be represented by x, therefore:
40 : x = 8² : 4.8²
40/x = 64/23.04
Cross multiply
x*64 = 40*23.04
64x = 921.6
x = 921.6/64
x = 14.4
Area of rectangle S = 14.4 units²
