Qn says
let me assume
S as side of square
l as one side of rectangle
w as another side of rectangle
4S = 2(l+b)
s=(l+b)/2......................(1)
given l:b = 2:3
so
l = 2x
b = 3x
l+b = 5x
from 1
s = (5x)/2
now ratio required will be
lb / s^2
= 2x * 3x / ((5x/2)^2)
solve it you will get
24 / 28
Good Luck!!
