Beth is designing a business card. She makes a scale drawing of her old business card by using a scale factor of 5/4. Her scale drawing is a 2 and 1/2 by 5-inch rectangle. The print shop says that the scale drawing is a reduction of the original card because the original card must be 3 and 1/8 inches by 6 and 1/4 inches. Which explains the print shop's error and gives the correct dimensions of Beth's original card?

a.The scale factor is greater than 1 so the scale drawing is an enlargement, and the original card is 2 inches by 4 inches.
b.The scale factor is greater than 1 so the scale drawing is an enlargement, and the original card is 3 and 3/4 inches by 6 and 1/4 inches.
c.The scale factor is a fraction so the scale drawing is a reduction, and the original card is 2 inches by 4 inches.
d.The scale factor is a fraction so the scale drawing is a reduction, and the original card is 3 and 3/4 inches by 6 and 1/4 inches.
