Question

what is your original area multiplied by the scale factor squared?
16
36
64

Explanation:

Step1: Assume scale - factor squared is 1

When the scale - factor squared is 1, multiplying the original area by it gives the original area itself.

Step2: Calculate for each value

For the first value 16, when multiplied by 1 (scale - factor squared assumed as 1), the result is $16\times1 = 16$.
For the second value 36, when multiplied by 1, the result is $36\times1=36$.
For the third value 64, when multiplied by 1, the result is $64\times1 = 64$.

Answer:

16
36
64
