Pete painted of a rectangle green. he painted of the same rectangle blue,
pete painted the rest of the rectangle red. what fraction of the rectangle did
pete paint red?
draw a rectangle to model the amount of each color pete used. divide the
rectangle into equal parts and label the parts for green, b for blue and r for
red.

divide the numbers

step-by-step explanation:

area of rectangle a is 2 times that of rectangle b that means 2x+x =   36cm^2

3x = 36cm ^2

x = 36/3

x= 12cm^2

and 2x = 24cm^2

now side of square = are divided by sides = 36/4 = 6cm

that means length of rectangle a and b is 6cm too

now for rectangle a,

l*b = area

= 6*y=24

y=24/6 = 4

therefore dimensions of rectangle a are- length = 6cm, breadth = 4cm

and for rectangle b, length = 6cm and breadth = 6-4 = 2cm.

hope this .
