Beni's uncle is building a deck for her house that is proportional to the 20- feet by 30- feet deck he built for his house. The scale factor between his deck and her deck is 0.5. Which of the following could be a measurement for Beni's deck?

(MY ANSWER) ----> 15 feet?? (its a guess) please explain

Answer 3

you need two dimensions because the bigger one is 20 by 30. so if the scale factor is .5, then the dimensions have to be halved also...
20*.5 by 30*.5 or
10 by 15
