• A. greater than
• B. equal to
• C. less than

Answer 1

The correct option is A greater than

Shape A,Area of each square = $1\times 1$ sq unit = 1 sq unit
Number of square = 6
Therefore, total area = $1\times 6$ sq unit = 6 sq unit

Shape B,Area of each square = $1\times 1$ sq unit = 1 sq unit
Number of square = 4
Therefore, total area = $1\times 4$ sq unit = 4 sq unit

Hence, area of Shape A is greater than the area of the Shape B.
