I have no idea what "es026-1.jpg" means.
A rectangular rug is 12.5 feet long and 10 feet wide. The rug needs to be reduced by a factor of es026-1.jpg to be placed near a door. What is the area of the reduced rug in square feet?

well, whatever the factor, if it is x, then the area is reduced by a factor of x^2.
xL * xW = x^2(LW)
xL * xW = x^2(LW)

I saw the question on my quiz. The scale factor is 1/5
