A poster is shown below:


A rectangle is shown. The length of the rectangle is labeled 10 feet. The width of the rectangle is labeled 4 feet.


What are the dimensions if the poster is enlarged by a factor of three over two?

Verified Answer :

L1= 10 ft

W1=4 ft

L2=L1(3/2)

W2=W1(3/2)

L2=10 ft times (3/2) = 15 ft

W2 = 4 ft times (3/2) = 6 ft

The new dimensions of the poster after enlargement by a scale factor of 3/2 are:

  • length = 15 feet
  • width = 6 feet

Recall:

To enlarge a shape by a scale factor, multiply each of the dimension of the shape by the scale factor.

Thus, the dimensions of the given rectangle are:

  • length = 10 feet
  • width = 4 feet

New dimensions of the poster after enlargement by a scale factor of 3/2:

  • length = 10 × 3/2 = 15 feet
  • width = 4 × 3/2 = 6 feet

Therefore, the new dimensions of the poster after enlargement by a scale factor of 3/2 are:

  • length = 15 feet
  • width = 6 feet
