Respuesta :

The answer is 1-3/5 in. by 10-5/8 in.

Answer:

8.5 inch × 10.625 inch.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the dimensions of the card are 4 inch × 5 inch.

Also, the dimensions of the paper are [tex]8\frac{1}{2}\times 11[/tex] i.e. 8.5 inch × 11 inch.

Now, the possible enlargement in the sides are given by,

[tex]\frac{8.5}{4}=2.125[/tex]

[tex]\frac{11}{5}=2.2[/tex]

So, the maximum enlargement possible is 2.125x, where x represents the values of the dimensions of the cards.

Thus, the maximum enlargement possible is 2.125 × 4 = 8.5 and 2.125 × 5 =10.625.

Hence, the dimensions of the largest enlargement possible are 8.5 inch × 10.625 inch.
