Sandy asked a printing company to enlarge a drawing to 120% of its original size. If the width of the original drawing was 37 centimeters, what is the width of the copy of the drawing?
A.51.8cm
B.48.1cm
C.55.5cm
D.44.4c
To find the width of the copy of the drawing, we need to multiply the original width by 130%.
Step 1: Convert the percentage to decimal form by dividing it by 100. 130% becomes 1.3.
Step 2: Multiply the original width by the decimal form of the percentage.
35 cm * 1.3 = 45.5 cm
Therefore, the width of the copy of the drawing is 45.5 centimeters.
