Alex is drawing rectangles with different areas on a centimeter grid . He can draw 3 different rectangles with an area of 12cm squared how many different rectangles could Alex draw with an area of 11 cm squared give a reason for your anwser please i need help please anwser this quikly.

Alex can only drawn 1 rectangle with an area of 11 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

When Area = 12 cm², Alex could draw 3 rectangles.

This is because, Area of a rectangle = Length * Breadth

and the factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12.

The 3 triangle formed can be gotten from the correct combinations of these factors, which are 12 × 1, 2 × 6, 3 × 4.

All of these three combinations give us an area of 12 cm²

Similarly when Area = 11 cm², 11 is a prime number and its factors are 1 and 11.

The only combination that can be made from these factors is 11 × 1.

This means that only one rectangle can be drawn

the first option is the answer.
