Verified Answer :

Just divide 29 by 100 which equals .29

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 = \(0.29 \text{ centimeters}\)
