Question

1 Polygon Q is a scaled copy of Polygon P using a scale factor of 2 Polygon Q's area is what fraction of Polygon P's area? ​

Answer 1

Answer: 1/4

Explanation:

Say you have a square, and each side is two units. The area of that square is 4 because 2 times 2 is 4. Now multiply each side by two, causing the area to go from 4 to 16 because each side is now 4. 16 times 1/4 is 4.
