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 side length

The square on the current grid has side length = 1 unit. Actual length: $1 \times 8 = 8$ cm

Step2: Find new grid side length

Calculate units needed for new scale: $\frac{8}{2} = 4$ units

Step3: Draw scaled figure

On the new grid, draw a square with each side equal to 4 grid units.

Answer:

On the "New scale" grid, draw a square where each side spans 4 grid units (since the actual side length of the original square is 8 cm, and at 1 unit = 2 cm, this converts to 4 units on the new grid).
