JJ's new drawing 10 in x 14 2/3 in but now he wants to make it bigger What are the dimensions if he multiplies by a scale of 2 1/2 Will his new drawing be smaller or larger than the original drawing

Respuesta :

Answer:

  • 25 in x 36 2/3 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scale factor is greater than 1 the new drawing will have greater dimensions thus will have larger area.

The new dimensions:

  • 10 * 2 1/2 = 10 * 5/2 = 25 in and
  • 14 2/3 * 2 1/2 = 44/3 * 5/2 =110/3 = 36 2/3 in

Let's multiply

Length

  • 10×2 1/2
  • 10×5/2
  • 5(5)
  • 25in

Breadth

  • 14 2/3×5/2
  • 44/3×5/2
  • 22/3(5)
  • 110/3 in
