You could use a proportion and cross-multiply. For example, if the reduced rectangle had a length of 3 and a width of 5, and then the one measurement of the original rectangle is length of 7, you could set a proportion like:
3/5 = 7/x

Then, cross multiply to solve for x, and that sound give the missing measure.

The explanation regarding the dimensions of a reduced rectangle and one given measurement of an original rectangle to find a missing measure is to be described below:

The following information should be considered:

  • Here we can proportion and cross-multiply.
  • For example, if the reduced rectangle had a length of 3 and a width of 5,
  • And then the one measurement of the original rectangle is length of 7,
  • Here the proportion like:

\(3\div 5 = 7\div x\)

Here we can do cross multiply and find the x value.
