What is the enlargement ratio if you enlarge the figure to have a width of 16 units and length of 12 units

Respuesta :

Answer:

The enlargement ratio is 3:4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

a width of 16 units and length of 12 units

so,

[tex]W=16[/tex]

and

[tex]L=12[/tex]

now, we can find enlargement ratio

we can use formula

enlargement ratio = (length)/(width)

[tex]=\frac{L}{W}[/tex]

now, we can plug values

[tex]=\frac{12}{16}[/tex]

now, we can simplify it

[tex]=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

So,

The enlargement ratio is 3:4
