Sculpture1 base area
83.3cm = 0.833m
1790mm = 1.79m
0.833 * 1.79
1.49 m²
Sculpture 2 base area
1.3 * 0.6
0.78 m²
1.49 > 0.78 Therefor
Sculpture 1 has the larger base
-----------------------
Grass A area
6 * 3
18ft²
Grass B area
1.5yd = 3ft
30inches = 2.5ft
3 * 2.5
7.5ft²
18 > 7.5 therefor
Grass Area A is larger
--------------------
Put the largest sculpture in the larger area
Sculpture 1 (two birds) goes in Grass area A <–––––
Sculpture 2(tree) goes in Grass area B <––––––
