Answer:

The dimensions of the new rectangle are [tex]2\ by\ 1.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In this problem the ratio of [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] is equal to the scale factor

To obtain the dimensions of the new rectangle multiply the dimensions of the original rectangle by the scale factor

so

[tex]8*(1/4)=2\ units[/tex]

[tex]6*(1/4)=1.5\ units[/tex]
