<u><em>Explanation</em></u><span><u><em>: </em></u>
We use the size of the largest dimension of the reproduction to find the scale factor. The largest dimension of the original drawing was 5 inches.
The largest dimension of the reproduction is 11 inches.
<u>To find the scale factor, divide: </u>
</span></span>
<span><span>=2.1.
Since the scale factor is 2.1, to find the smallest dimension of the reproduction we <u>multiply the original by 2.1</u>:
2*2.1=4.2 inches.</span></span>
