What is the scale factor?

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction consists of two numbers and a fraction bar: 15/9

The number above the bar is called numerator: 15

The number below the bar is called denominator: 9

The fraction bar means that the two numbers are dividing themselves.

To get fraction's value divide the numerator by the denominator:

Value = 15 ÷ 9

area = length x width

length = 2 x width

32 = 2 x width x width

32 = 2 x width^2

36 = width ^2  

width = 6

length = 12

area is 32

perimeter = 2 x 12 + 2 x 6 = 24 + 12 = 36

step-by-step explanation:

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
