18 square yards
54 square yards
108 square yards
324 square yards
I got the answer of 18.Is it correct?

4 answers

6*3^2 = 54

Since the length is multiplied by 3, and the width is multiplied by 3, the area is multiplied by 9.
18 is not correct
and steve i believe 54 is right
The correct answer is 324, because 6x3 is 18 and you square it, so 18(2). 6x6x3x3=324. There is The correct answer. Sorry I'm five years late tho.
