Answer 24

oh well, here is an example problem.

Solution:

Step 1: If we multiply the length of one side of the larger rectangle by the scale factor we get the length of the corresponding side of the smaller rectangle.
Step 2: Dimension of larger rectangle × scale factor = dimension of smaller rectangle
Step 3: 24 × scale factor = 20 [Substitute the values.]
Step 4: Scale factor = 20/24 [Divide each side by 24.]
Step 5: Scale factor =5/6= 5:6 [Simplify.]
Therefore, scale factor from the larger rectangle to the smaller rectangle is 5:6.

Answer 34

Here, you turn each fraction into a decimal, by doing the less number divided by the greater number, like 4 divided by 7. Then round. Then use the calculator to divide that answer by 21. = 11.97, round that and it equals 12. So it is A. c:
