How Does SCALING Work on a Copy Machine?
• Most copy machines allow the user to SCALE (make bigger or smaller) the copy.• For example, in the image above, which numbers make the copy smaller and
which make the copy bigger? What does 100% mean?• Area or Sides? – If we focus on 78%, does this refer to AREA or the LENGTHS of
the SIDES? What do you think? • For the following example, can you make sense of each person’s idea. Then,
which ideas do you agree/disagree with most?
From discussions overheard in faculty copy rooms:
Person 1: “Material costs like paper and ink are generally related to AREA, so area is what matters most and so the 78% is what happens to the area.”
Person 2: “Sides are what matter. If you want 50% you want the sides to be half as long.”
Person 3: “Hey, it doesn’t matter. Bigger is bigger and smaller is smaller. 50% or 78% or whatever means basically the same thing for both.”
Person 4: “I don’t know what it is but I’m pretty sure that they can’t be both … they can’t both be 50% at the same time … so it’s either Area or Length.”

Scaling & “Same to Same” Comparisons
• To help decide what the 78% means we will need to compare Length of Sides (s) Before (100%) to Sides After (s’) being reduced (78%) and Areas (a) Before to Areas (a’) after. Whichever is scaled by 78% (0.78) will help us decide.
• Because we are comparing s to s’ and a to a’, we’ll call this a “SAME TO SAME” comparison.
• Note: A convention is to use an apostrophe for the corresponding values. So we’re comparing s to s’ and a to a’. Another convention is to use small letters for measured or measurable values.
• Us centimeters for all values.• To get area, we can use the
formula length * width = area or overlay with cm*cm graph paper and count or estimate the number of squares.

Post Questions: [1] For a Given Shape or Figure, what pattern stays the Sameacross ALL the Scaled Images?[2] If the comparisons of “same to different” do not have this pattern, what can we conclude about the Shapes or Figures[3] When might you use SAME to SAME comparisons and when might you use SAME to DIFFERENT comparisons?[4] A comparison like “there are 3 boys for every 2 girls “ is most like which of these comparisons? How is this comparison like or not like “shape”?
