Answer:

A) length = 9cm, width = 4 cm

Explanation:

The key word "times" refers to multiplication, so if you're trying to find dimensions at 1/4 times its original size, you need to multiply the original dimensions by 1/4.

l = 36

new l = 36 (1/4)

= 36/4

= 9 cm

w = 16

new w = 16 (1/4)

= 16/4

= 4 cm
