Answer:

<em>The correct option will be:   Rectangle C (Width= 6 and Length= 10)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the length of the original photograph is x inches and width is y inches.

Hiroto reduces the photograph by 0.5 by scanning it onto his computer.

So, the <u>length of the scanned image</u> =0.5x inches <u>and width</u> =0.5y inches.

Given that, the length and width of the image on the screen are 5 inches and 3 inches respectively. That means.........

0.5x=5\\ \\ x=\frac{5}{0.5}=10\\\\\\ and\\ \\ 0.5y=3\\ \\ y=\frac{3}{0.5}=6

So, the rectangle C represents the original photograph, which has width as 6 inches and length as 10 inches.

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original size of the photograph be x by y.

It is given that Hiroto reduces a rectangular photograph by 0.5 by scanning it onto his computer.

The new size of the photograph is 0.5x by 0.5y.

It is given that the image on the screen measures 3 inches by 5 inches.

0.5x=3

Divide both sides by 0.5.

x=6

0.5y=5

Divide both sides by 0.5.

y=10

Therefore the original size of the photograph is 6 by 10. Option C is correct.
