Answer:
The area over which a force acts, is proportional to the pressure. When the area is large then, the pressure acted on it is also large, so the force is greater. Pressure=force/area - in this formula pressure is diagonally propotional to area hence less the area, more the pressure and more the area, less the pressure.
