A deer tick measures 29 centimeters in length in a photograph. If the photo has been enlarged by the factor of 100,what is the actual length of the deer tick?
Answer: \(0.29 \text{ centimeters}\)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A deer tick measures 29 centimeters in length in a photograph.
If the photo has been enlarged by the factor of 100, then the actual length of the deer tick will be :-
\(\dfrac{29}{100}=0.29 \text{ centimeters}\) [Divide the length of deer tick in photograph by the scale factor ]
Hence, the actual length of the deer tick = \(0.29 \text{ centimeters}\)
