Question

A mural inspired by a photograph measures 108 inches by 180 inches. The scale factor is 12. What are the dimension of the photograph

Answer 1

The dimensions of the photo are 9 inches by 15 inches

Explanation:

As the scale factor is 12, we just divide each of the lengths of the mural by 12 to get the corresponding lengths of the photo.

so i.e we get:

108 ÷ 12 = 9, and

180 ÷ 12 = 15
