Find the factor that he scaled it down by
\n" ); document.write( "\"+48%2F120+=+2%2F5+\" cm/m
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Now scale down the width by the same factor
\n" ); document.write( "( m )*( cm/m ) = m
\n" ); document.write( "\"+80%2A%28+2%2F5%29+=+32+\" m
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+A+=+48%2A32+\" cm2
\n" ); document.write( "You do the multiplication
\n" ); document.write( "
