Question 1157114
I want the proportions to stay the same, so
I will say:
{{{ ( 2*k )*( 3*k ) = ( 1/9 )*( 2*3 ) }}}
{{{ 6k^2 = 6*( 1/9 ) }}}
{{{ k^2 = 1/9 }}}
{{{ k = 1/3 }}}
--------------------
The new dimensions are:
{{{ ( 2k )*( 3k ) = 2*(1/3) * 3*( 1/3 ) }}}
{{{ ( 2k )*( 3k ) = 2/3 * 1 }}}
------------------------------
2/3 ft x 1 ft
----------------
check:
{{{ (2/3)*1 = ( 1/9)*2*3 }}}
{{{ 2/3 = 6/9 }}}
{{{ 2/3 = 2/3 }}}
OK
get a 2nd opinion if needed
