Multiple 40*40 to determine the actual square inches.  Then multiply 5*9 to determine the square inches of the frame.  Compare the two numbers.  If 40*40 is bigger than 5*9, then the picture will not fit in the frame.  If 40*40 is smaller than 5*9, then the picture will fit in the frame.

40^2= 40 * 40= 160" squared

5*9= 45" squared

A 160" squared picture would be too big for a 45" squared frame.


Hope this helps!  :)
Hello!

We must find the area of the picture frame because that is how we will be able to figure out whether or not the 40 inch² picture will fit in the frame. 

5 * 9 = 45

A N S W E R: 

The picture frame is too big for the picture because it has an area of 45 inch², which is why your answer is no, the picture will NOT fit in the frame.
