Question

A deer tick measures 29 centimeters in length in a photograph. If the photo has been enlarged by a factor of 100, what is the actual length of the deer tick?

Answer 1

For this question, you need to divide 42 by one hundred because that's how many times the photo was enlarged. Something you could do is just do 42/100 in fraction form, which equals 0.42 or 42 hundredths. So your answer would be 0.42. Hope that helped!
