Question

ASAP The rectangle below has been enlarged by a scale of 3.5. A rectangle with a length of 8 and width of 6. [Not drawn to scale] What is the area of the enlarged rectangle?

Answer 1

588 units^2

Explanation:

To find the area of the enlarged rectangle, first find the length and width of the enlarged rectangle.

This is 3.5 multiplied by their original measures:

Length = 3.5 x 8 = 28

Width = 3.5 x 6 = 21

Now, area =. LxW = 588 units^2

Hope this helps

Answer 2

588 units squared

Explanation:

We have a rectangle that has dimensions 8 units by 6 units.

From the problem, we know that this rectangle has been enlarged by a scale of 3.5. Essentially, to obtain the dimensions of the new, bigger rectangle, we multiply the current length (8 units) by 3.5 and the current width (6 units) by 3.5:

new length = 8 * 3.5 = 28 units

new width = 6 * 3.5 = 21 units

Given this, we can now calculate the area.

The area of a rectangle is denoted by A = lw, where l is the length and w is the width.

Here, the length is l = 28 and the width is w = 21. Plug these in:

A = lw

A = 28 * 21 = 588

The answer is thus 588 units squared.
