A scale drawing of a rectangle is made by using a scale factor of StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction. The original and the scale drawing are shown below.

A rectangle has a length of 18 inches and width of 12 inches.
[Not drawn to scale]

Which method can be used to find the dimensions of the original rectangle?
18 minus StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 17 and StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction inches and 12 minus StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 11 and StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction inches
StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction divided by 18 = StartFraction 5 over 144 EndFraction inches and StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction divided by 12 = StartFraction 5 over 96 EndFraction inches
18 times StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 11 and one-fourth inches and 12 times StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 7 and one-half inches
18 divided by StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 28 and four-fifths inches and 12 divided by StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 19 and one-fifth inches
