Answer: 11.25 and 5

Explanation:

a 9x4 rectangle dilated by 125% is also saying;

9(1.25) * 4(1.25) = ?

Since you only need the dimensions, I'll leave it here

11.25 and 5

Answer:

The dimensions of Scarlett's new rectangle would be 11.25 inches long by 5 inches wide.

To calculate this, we multiply both the length and width of the original rectangle by 125%, which is equivalent to multiplying by 1.25.

This gives us 9 x 1.25 = 11.25 for the new length, and 4 x 1.25 = 5 for the new width.
