Answer:

A. 1.5 cm by 2.5 cm

B. 27 cm by 45 cm

C. 9 cm by 15 cm

D. 30 cm by 50 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the original painting = 12 cm by 20 cm painting

Hence, the proportion is:

12/20 = 0.6

Hence, we compare the options given in the question.

A. 1.5 cm by 2.5 cm

= 1.5/2.5 = 0.6 , option A is correct

B. 27 cm by 45 cm

27cm/45 cm = 0.6 Option B is correct

C. 9 cm by 15 cm

9cm/15cm = 0.6 , Option C is correct

D. 30 cm by 50 cm

30 cm /50 cm = 0.6 Option D is correct

E. 6 cm by 14 cm

6cm/14 cm = 0.4285714286

Option E is not correct

Therefore, Options A to D are the correct options
