If the first drawing is 12 inches long and 9 inches wide then the second one is 8 inches long and 5 inches wide because if you look closely first drawing is 12 inch by 9 inch 9 is three less than 12 so if the problem is 8 inch long 3 less than that is 5 inches so it would have to be 8 inches long by 5 inches wide
