6-27.
Begin by drawing any quadrilateral.
Next, make each side four times as long.
You successfully enlarged the quadrilateral by 4:1, since each side became four times as long.
For this problem, if the length of one side is 2 units, then its enlarged version is 7 units. If its length is 4 units, the enlarged version is 14 units. Use this information to help you enlarge a quadrilateral.
