4.OA.2: The Turner family uses 548 liters of water per day. The Hill family uses 3 times as much water per day. How much more water does the Hill family use per day?

1096 more water

Step-by-step explanation:

Let;

x = the water used in general

but used 3 times of the original = 3x

3*(548) = 1644 water a day

How much more water =New - original

where:

new = 1644

original= 548

1644 - 548

=1096 more water

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
