The initial measure is:
 m1 = 28 ft
 The real measure must be:
 m2 = 14 ft
 The correct procedure to determine the scale factor is:
 [tex]k = m1 / m2 k = 28/14[/tex]
 Dividing both numbers between 14 we have:
 [tex]k = (28/14) / (14/14)[/tex]
 Rewriting:
 [tex]k = 2/1 k = 2[/tex]
 Answer:
 Zelie should have divided both numbers by 14.
