A student sketched some art on an 8-inch x 10-inch piece of paper. She wants to resize it to fit a 4-inch x 6 inchframe (as shown below).What percent of the original sketch was still able to be included in the frame?

Respuesta :

So,

The area of art can be found multiplying:

8in * 10in = 80in²

And, the area of the frame, can be also found multiplying the dimentions:

4in * 6in = 24in².

If we divide, we'll obtain a ratio between the area of the frame and the area of the art as follows:

[tex]\frac{24}{80}=0.3[/tex]

And, 0.3*100% = 30%.

So,30 percent of the original sketch was still able to be included in the frame.
