The area of Egypt is about 386,700 square miles. The area of Wyoming is about 97, 818 square miles. How many times larger is Egypt than Wyoming? Do I multiply, divide or add?
Divide.
Thank you Ms. Sue
You're welcome, Rita.

same divide :P
To determine how many times larger Egypt is than Wyoming, you need to divide the area of Egypt by the area of Wyoming.
First, let's divide the area of Egypt by the area of Wyoming:
386,700 square miles ÷ 97,818 square miles = 3.96
Egypt is approximately 3.96 times larger than Wyoming.
Therefore, you need to divide the areas of the two countries to find the answer.
