It looks like you're asking about a problem involving similar figures, particularly rectangles. To help you solve this, I'll break it down into steps.
- Identify the dimensions of the original rectangle (left).
- Identify the dimensions of the scaled rectangle (right).
- Determine the scale factor by comparing the corresponding dimensions of the two rectangles.
- Express the scale factor in simplest form, whether it’s a whole number or fraction.
Since you haven't provided specific dimensions for the rectangles, I’ll illustrate the process with an example:
Example:
-
Left Rectangle Dimensions:
- Length = 4 units
- Width = 2 units
-
Right Rectangle Dimensions (scaled copy):
- Length = 8 units
- Width = 4 units
Steps:
-
Compare Lengths: \[ \text{Scale Factor for Length} = \frac{\text{Length of Right}}{\text{Length of Left}} = \frac{8}{4} = 2 \]
-
Compare Widths: \[ \text{Scale Factor for Width} = \frac{\text{Width of Right}}{\text{Width of Left}} = \frac{4}{2} = 2 \]
-
Conclusion: The scale factor is 2, meaning that the rectangle on the right is twice the size of the rectangle on the left in both dimensions.
Please provide the specific dimensions of your rectangles if you want to analyze a particular case!
