Challenge! Ready? The two rectangles are similar. Which is the correct proportion for corresponding sides? The two rectangles are 4 by 12 and 8 by 24. Include work so I, Lollygirl, will know you are not cheating.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What exactly is this asking for?
