We need to know about unitary method to solve the problem. The length of the actual magazine cover is 8 inches, the width of the actual magazine cover is 11 inches, the length of the new magazine cover is 32cm and the width of the new magazine cover is 44cm.

Unitary method is used to find the value of a unit object. . In this question we know the scale is 6cm to 1 inch for actual magazine cover, the length is given to be 48 cm and the width is 66cm,

length of actual magazine cover= 48/6=8 inches

width of actual magazine cover= 66/6=11 inches

The new scale is 4 cm to 1 inch

length of new magazine cover=8x4=32 cm

width of new magazine cover =11x4=44 cm

Therefore the length of the actual magazine cover is 8 inches, the width of the actual magazine cover is 11 inches, the length of the new magazine cover is 32 cm and the width of the new magazine cover is 44cm.
