Mathematics: Below are two parallel lines with a third intersecting them

snikergrace · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is:
4.2 inches.

Explanation:
We use the size of the largest dimension of the reproduction to find the scale factor. The largest dimension of the original drawing was 5 inches.
The largest dimension of the reproduction is 11 inches.

To find the scale factor, divide:
$\frac{11}{5}$ =2.1.

Since the scale factor is 2.1, to find the smallest dimension of the reproduction we multiply the original by 2.1:
2*2.1=4.2 inches.
