Question

Emma created the poster shown below: A rectangle is shown. The length of the rectangle is labeled as length equal to 36 cm, and the width is labeled as width equal to 24 cm. What would be the dimensions of the poster at fraction 1 over 4 times its current size? Length = 32 cm, width = 20 cm Length = 40 cm, width = 28 cm Length = 144 cm, width = 96 cm Length = 9 cm, width = 6 cm

Answer 1

the answer is D. Length = 9, width = 6cm

Answer 2

Length = 9 cm, width = 6 cm

Explanation:

If the length of the rectangle is labeled as length equal to 36 cm, and the width is labeled as width equal to 24 cm.

Length = 36cm

Width = 24cm

One fourth the current size of the rectangle will be;

New length= 1/4×36 = 9cm

New width = 1/4 × 24 = 6cm

The new dimension of the poster is therefore 9cm×6cm

Length = 9cm

Width = 6cm
