1/3 of the dimensions means to divide the dimensions by 3. This is to figure out what 1/3 of the dimensions are.
Our length is 6, and our width is 9.
Let's divide our length first.
6/3 = 2.
Our length with 1/3 of it's original dimensions is 2.
Let's divide our width now.
9/3 = 3.
Our width with 1/3 of it's original dimensions is 3.
Our dimensions are 2 by 3.
Your answer is A.) 2 in. by 3 in.
I hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:5 and 3 both go into 15
Answer:
look at explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve all of these questions you just need to scale. While scaling you can divide or multiply.
1.
(divide by 4 to get unit rate)
unit rate = 
2. If it takes one hour to travel 40 miles, then we don't have to scale or anything. We know
, the answer is...
"It'll only take one hour to travel 40 miles. This is correct because the unit rate is
. "
3. Knowing that the constant speed of the plane is
, we can scale then add half of the unit rate to get our answer.
x 3 =
800 x 3 = 2400
then add half of unit rate which is
= 400
so, our answer is 
4.
<--- ( divided by 2)
( multiplied x 2.5) ---> 
To get an easier way to find the answer, if possible you can scale back farther than the 1 hour mark.
Elmer would take 2 and a half hours to ride 15 km.
5. The boys speed is
. All we need to do is divide by 2.
= 4
Answer:
CU = 117
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
substituting in values to the ratios
=
( cross- multiply )
24(36x - 1) = 3432 ( divide both sides by 24 )
36x - 1 = 143 ( add 1 to both sides )
36x = 144 ( divide both sides by 36 )
x = 4
CU = 36x - 1 - 26 = (36 × 4) - 27 = 144 - 27 = 117
