Question

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

Explanation:

Step1: Find actual length of side

First, count the units of the square in the current scale: it is 4 units.
Actual length = $4 \times 2 = 8$ m

Step2: Calculate new scaled length

New scale: 1 unit = 8 m. New scaled length = $\frac{8}{8} = 1$ unit

Step3: Find actual height of side

Count the units of the square's height in current scale: it is 3 units.
Actual height = $3 \times 2 = 6$ m

Step4: Calculate new scaled height

New scaled height = $\frac{6}{8} = 0.75$ units (or $\frac{3}{4}$ unit)

Answer:

On the new scale grid, draw a rectangle (square-like in original, now scaled) with a width of 1 unit and a height of $\frac{3}{4}$ unit (or 0.75 units) anywhere on the right grid.
