  • Question 13 (request help)

    Shannon is making three different sizes of blankets from the same material. The first measures 2.5 feet by 2 feet. She wants to enlarge it by a scale factor of 2 to make the second blanket. Then she will enlarge the second one by a scale factor of 1.5 to make the third blanket. What are the dimensions of the third blanket? Are all of the blankets similar?
