Just divide the dimensions by 4 (same as multiplying by 1/4) you get 1ft by 2ft

Answer: 2 ft by 1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Miller has a painting that is 4 ft by 8 ft.

If we scale down the painting by a factor of one-fourth , then the dimensions of the painting will be one-fourth of the original dimensions.

Length of the new painting= $8\times\frac{1}{4}=2\ ft$

Width of the painting= $4\times\frac{1}{4}=1\ ft$

Hence, the dimensions of the painting if he scales it down by a factor of one-fourth=2 ft by 1 ft.
