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
