    Sides of first rectangle are 12 inches and 6 inches

    and sides of second rectangle are 10 inches and 5 inches

    So to find the ration of sides we can do

    Ratio of bases = 12/10 = 6/5

    Ratio of altitudes = 6/5

    Area of first rectangle = base * altitude = 12 * 6 = 72 square inches
