A enlarged drawing is a drawing that is bigger than the original image / building / object

the enlarged drawing is usually increased at a constant dimension

Scale of the enlarged drawing = enlarged dimensions / original dimension

2 inches : 8 mm

1 : 4

So, 1 inch represents 4 millimetres

Length of the actual beetle = [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 4

= [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x 4 = 6mm

Width of the actual beetle = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x 4 = 3mm
