the width of the room is 3 ft. The length of the room is 9 ft. The area is still 27ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 27 divided by 3 = 9

2. 3 * 3 = 9

3. put it all in words

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have

1

x = 1

step-by-step explanation:

0 ÷ x = 0

0 ÷ 1 = 0
