Answer:
The dimensions of the new rectangle are \(2\ by\ 1.5\)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
In this problem the ratio of \(\frac{1}{4}\) is equal to the scale factor
To obtain the dimensions of the new rectangle multiply the dimensions of the original rectangle by the scale factor
so
\(8*(1/4)=2\ units\)
\(6*(1/4)=1.5\ units\)
