Jackson purchased a pattern for making a small kite. The pattern consists of a rectangle with dimensions 2 inches wide by 8 inch
es long. The directions say to enlarge the rectangle to make the kite. If Jackson makes his kite with an enlarged pattern that is 28 inches long, how wide will his pattern need to be?
The kite will be 7 inches wide because to go from 8 to 28 you multiply by 3.5 so you do the same to the 2.Concluding that your answer will be 7 inches wide
