Question

the figure below was made with a scale of 1 unit = 8 cm. draw the figure with a new scale of 1 unit = 2 cm. you can place your figure anywhere on the grid on the right.

Explanation:

Step1: Find actual dimensions

First, identify the rectangle's size on the current grid: it is 2 units wide and 1 unit tall.
Actual width: $2 \times 8 = 16$ cm
Actual height: $1 \times 8 = 8$ cm

Step2: Calculate new grid size

Find how many units each dimension is in the new scale.
New width (units): $\frac{16}{2} = 8$ units
New height (units): $\frac{8}{2} = 4$ units

Step3: Draw scaled figure

On the right grid, draw a rectangle that is 8 units wide and 4 units tall (can be placed anywhere on the grid).

Answer:

Draw an 8-unit wide, 4-unit tall rectangle on the right grid (1 unit = 2 cm scale).
