Answer:

54 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of the rectangle ABCD is 8 feet and the area of the same rectangle is 96 square feet.

Hence, the length of the rectangle is (96 ÷ 8) = 12 feet.

Now, if the rectangle ABCD is dilated to rectangle A'B'C'D', then the length and the width of the new rectangle will be changed in the same ratio.

So, \frac{AB}{A'B'} = \frac{BC}{B'C'}  {Where AB is the length and BC is the width}

⇒ \frac{12}{A'B'} = \frac{8}{6}

⇒ A'B' = 9 feet

Therefore, the area of the dilated rectangle A'B'C'D' will be A'B' × B'C' = 9 × 6 = 54 square feet. (Answer)

How did you get 7/20=0.35
Jet001 [13]
\frac{7}{20} =  \frac{7 \times 5}{20 \times 5} = \frac{35}{100} = 0.35

Hope that makes more sense to you as to why 7/20 = 0.35
