Given that,

A rectangle with an area of  5/8 ft squared is dilated by a factor of 8

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to scale factor squared

Let,

z = the scale factor

x = the area of the dilated rectangle

y = the area of the original rectangle

From given,

z = 8

Therefore,

Thus the area of dilated rectangle is 40 square feet
