Option A: They both have the same width.
The width of the rectangle on the left is not given, and the width of the rectangle on the right is also not given. Therefore, we cannot compare their widths.
Option B: They both have the same length.
The length of the rectangle on the left is 6 ft, and the length of the rectangle on the right is 4 ft. Therefore, they do not have the same length.
Option C: They both have the same area.
The area of the rectangle on the left is 6 ft x 2 ft = 12 sq ft, and the area of the rectangle on the right is 4 ft x 3 ft = 12 sq ft. Therefore, they have the same area.
Option D: They both have the same perimeter.
The perimeter of the rectangle on the left is 2(6 ft + 2 ft) = 16 ft, and the perimeter of the rectangle on the right is 2(4 ft + 3 ft) = 14 ft. Therefore, they do not have the same perimeter.
The correct answer is C. They both have the same area.
