b h / 2 = 124
1/2 (b/2)(3h) = 3/2 (b h / 2) = 3/2 (124)
The area of a triangle is 124 square units. What would its new area be if its base was half as long, and its height was three times as long?
I have no idea what I should use or do to solve this question. I only got to the point in where the new area is technically 1/2 (b/2)(3h). Please help! Thanks!

Oh! That actually makes a lot of sense. Thanks R_scott!
