has perimeter 60. Another regular hexagon has perimeter 180.
========
What is the area of the smaller hexagon divided by the area of the larger hexagon, written as a fraction?
---
Perimeter is a function of the 1st power.
Area is a function of the 2nd power.
3 times the perimiter ---> 9 times the area.
