The answer is D) 1/4
We draw the triangle and we notice triangle ABC is similar to DBE so all the sides will be in proportion.
Since AC is 4 times longer than DE, all the sides of triangle ABC will be 4 times longer.
Then if the perimeter of ABC was lets say 8, DBE would have a perimeter of 2.
D is the answer :)
Answer:
5x+3x=8x
