A television has a rectangular screen that measures 16 inches by 9 inches. A second television has a screen measuring 24 inches by 13.5 inches. What scale factor was used to create the second television screen?(1 point)
The correct answer is 1 1/2
To find the scale factor, we divide the dimensions of the second television screen by the dimensions of the first television screen.
The width scale factor is 24 inches / 16 inches = 3/2 = 1.5
The height scale factor is 13.5 inches / 9 inches = 3/2 = 1.5
So, the scale factor used to create the second television screen is 1.5. Answer: \boxed{1.5}.
