The area of Jill's soccer net is 3 times larger than area of Peter's soccer net.

Area of Peter's soccer net

The area of Peter's soccer net is determined by using area of rectangle as shown below;

A1 = 5.5 ft x 4 ft

A1 = 22 ft²

Area of Jill's soccer net

A2 = 5.5 ft x 12 ft

A2 = 66 ft²

Ratio of the area of their soccer net

A2/A1 = 66/22

A2/A1 = 3

Thus, the area of Jill's soccer net is 3 times larger than area of Peter's soccer net.
