Square to rectangle

What is the ratio of the area of a square of side x to the area of a rectangle of a rectangle of width 2 x and length 3

Result

r =  1:6

Solution:

S1=x2 S2=2x⋅ 3=6x  r=S1/S2 r=1/6=16≐0.1667≈0.1667≐1:6S_{1}=x^2 \ \\ S_{2}=2x \cdot \ 3=6x \ \\ \ \\ r=S_{1} / S_{2} \ \\ r=1 / 6=\dfrac{ 1 }{ 6 } \doteq 0.1667≈ 0.1667 \doteq 1:6
