A piece of carpet is 8 feet wide and 12 feet long. The carpet needs to be reduced by a scale factor so that the reduced carpet is 2 feet wide. What is the area of the reduced carpet?

The carpet's proportions are 8 feet x 12 feet. If the carpet is to be 2 feet wide, we have to divide the original proportions by 4, since 8/4 = 2. So, the new proportions will be 2 feet x 3 feet.

To find the carpet's area, we must multiply the width and the length. So, the final answer is:

Area = 2 x 3 = 6 square feet
