Answer:

Sid found the reciprocal of the scale factor

Explanation:

we know that

In a enlargement, the scale factor is greater than 1

To find out the scale factor, divide the corresponding side of the larger rectangle by the corresponding side of the original rectangle

so


(20)/(4)=5

therefore

Sid found the reciprocal of the scale factor
