Scale factor

Which length is missing from Fabian’s table?

In this question, it is given that the scale factor is
1:2.5

And the widths are 6 and 15.

And the length is 9.

We have to find the measurement of the length after the scale factor .

And for that we multiply 9 with the scale factor, and on doing so, we will get


9*2.5 = 22.5

So the missing length is 22.5
