उत्तर
To decide whose piece is bigger following ideas can be used.
- Idea 1: First of all let us cut piece B as shown here.


Now, put the first and second parts over piece A.
Conclusion: It is observed that the first and second parts exactly cover piece A.
But the third part is remaining shows that part B is bigger than part A. - Idea 2: We can divide the pieces A and B into 1 cm squares in the following way.


Now, let us count the number of small boxes in each piece.
There are 30 boxes in piece A.
There are 33 boxes in piece B.
So, piece B is bigger than piece A.
