Question

A graphic designer makes a sketch for an image that will appear on a poster. The width of the sketch is 14 in. She figures that it should be enlarged to 220% to make the final image. How wide will the final image be?
A. 6.4 in.
B. 64 in.
C. 30.8 in.
D. 308 in.

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to multiply 14 x 220%

220% = 2.2

So 14 * 2.2 = 30.8

Another way to think of it would be: 100% of 14 = 14

So 200% would mean you need to double that, which would be 28

Then the final 20% would add 2.8

Add 28 + 2.8 = 30.8
