    In order to find the area for a rectangle, you must multiply length times width, which would be 7 x 3/4 which is 5.25. In order to find the area for a square, you do length^2, also know as length x length. Which would be 2.5^2 which is 2.5 x 2.5 which is 6.25. 6.25 is larger than 5.25, so the square has a larger area.
