A television has a rectangular screen that measures 16 in by 9 in a second television has a screen measuring 24 in X 13.5 in what cell Factor was used to create the second television screen a 2 and 2/3 B -1 and 1/2 c 1 and 1/2 day 2/3

Answer 1

To find the scale factor used to create the second television screen from the first television screen, we need to compare the dimensions of both screens.

First television dimensions:

• Width = 16 inches
• Height = 9 inches

Second television dimensions:

• Width = 24 inches
• Height = 13.5 inches

Now, we can calculate the scale factor for each dimension.

Scale factor for width: \[ \text{Scale factor (width)} = \frac{\text{Width of second TV}}{\text{Width of first TV}} = \frac{24}{16} = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5 \]

Scale factor for height: \[ \text{Scale factor (height)} = \frac{\text{Height of second TV}}{\text{Height of first TV}} = \frac{13.5}{9} = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5 \]

Both scale factors are the same, confirming that the second television screen is scaled by a factor of 1.5.

Therefore, the answer is:

C) 1 and 1/2.
