Mark wants to create a scale drawing of the poster shown Below

Question

Rectangle
10 CM On Right
4 CM on bottom
What are the dimensions of the poster 1/2 its current size?

Answer 1

To find the dimensions of the poster that is half its current size, we need to divide both the length and width of the original poster by 2.

The original length is 10 cm, so the length of the half-sized poster would be 10 cm divided by 2, which is 5 cm.

Similarly, the original width is 4 cm, so the width of the half-sized poster would be 4 cm divided by 2, which is 2 cm.

Therefore, the dimensions of the poster that is half its current size would be 5 cm by 2 cm.
