We have to divide the dimensions by 9 to get a similar rectangle that's area is only 2 in.^2

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

For a game, Tony has a rectangle drawn on a piece of paper that has an area of 18 in.^2

In order to have a similar rectangle that's area is only 2 in.^2

Thus, we need to find the scale factor

Let "c" be the scale factor

Let "x" be the area of original rectangle

Let "y" be the area of dilated rectangle

Therefore,

c = \frac{y}{x}\\\\c = \frac{2}{18}\\\\c = \frac{1}{9}

Therefore, we have to divide the dimensions by 9 to get a similar rectangle that's area is only 2 in.^2

A ferry traveled 1/6 of the distance between two ports in 3/7 hour at this rate what fraction of the distance between the two po
Masja [62]
First, we determine the speed of the ferry by dividing the distance by the time it took to cover that certain distance. 
                                 speed = (1/6) / (3/7)
                                   speed = 7/18
Then, the distance it will travel for an hour is calculated through the procedure below. 
                         distance = (7/18hour) x (1 hour)
                           distance = 7/18
Therefore, after an hour, the ferry will be able to travel 7/18 of the distance between two ports.
