Answer: If the scale factor is greater than 1 then the image is an enlargement .

If the scale factor is smaller than 1 then the image is an reduction.

Cross Multiply

x = 24 kg × 2 times/1 kg

x = 48 times

She need to fill the flask 48 times to make the required amount of fertilizer for the crop
