The area of a triangle is given by the formula A = (1/2) * base * height.
Let's denote the base and height of triangle JKL as b and h, respectively. Therefore, the base and height of triangle MNP would be 3b and 3h.
The area of triangle MNP is (1/2) * (3b) * (3h) = (9/2) * b * h.
Therefore, the area of triangle MNP is 9/2 times the area of triangle JKL.
