Answer 1

Answer:

The measurements of drawing after enlargement=$3\ cm\times6\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

length of drawing= 2 cm

width of drawing= 4 cm

Since, she wants to enlarge her drawing by 150% hence the length and breath of drawing will get enlarge.

Hence, the length of drawing after enlargements =2 cm x 150%

                                                                                $=2\times \dfrac{150}{100}\\=2\times 1.5\\=3\ cm$

the width of drawing after enlargements=4 cm x 150%

                                                                                $=4\times \dfrac{150}{100}\\=4\times 1.5\\=6\ cm$

Hence,the measurements of drawing after enlargement=$3\ cm\times6\ cm$
