Answer: Polygon Q's area is 1/4 of Polygon P's area
======================================================
Explanation:
Imagine we had a square with side length 8. The area of this square is 8*8 = 64.
Now let's reduce each side of the square by the scale factor 1/2. So each new side is 8*(1/2) = 4. The area of this smaller square is 4*4 = 16.
Comparing the new area (16) to the old one (64), we see that the new area is 16/64 = 1/4 of the old area.
In other words,
new smaller area = (1/4)*(old larger area)
So this is one example to see why (1/2)*(1/2) = 1/4 is the area scale factor based on the linear scale factor of 1/2. In short, (1/2)^2 = 1/4. Whatever the original scale factor is, square it and you'll get the area scale factor.

Answer:
total amount of students in the class = 24
the amount of boy students in the class = 8
the amount of girl students in the class = ?
a) we know how many boys are in so B=8/24
b) know you calculate the amount of girl students in the class
totally they are 24 students are found we know the boys then the last are girls to know how many girls are in there
24 - 8 = 16 girls.
G=16/24
