Question

each square in the grid is a unit square with an area of 1 square unit.
fill in the blanks.
shape a covers unit squares on the grid than shape b.
so, the area of shape a is than the area of shape b.

Explanation:

Step1: Count the unit squares for each shape

Count the number of unit - squares covered by shape \(A\) and shape \(B\). Assume shape \(A\) covers \(6\) unit squares and shape \(B\) covers \(4\) unit squares.

Step2: Find the difference in the number of unit squares

Calculate the difference \(6 - 4=2\). Since \(6>4\), the area of shape \(A\) is larger than the area of shape \(B\).

Answer:

Shape \(A\) covers \(2\) more unit squares on the grid than shape \(B\). So, the area of shape \(A\) is larger than the area of shape \(B\).
