If my memory of photocopying serves me correctly, to double the size you set
the copier to 147 per cent, and to halve it to 78 per cent - I think, as it
was 1997 that I last did this, but I know you don't copy at 200 per cent to
double the size or 50 per cent to halve it.


To double the size (area) you copy at 1.41%, to reduce to half (the area) you copy at 71%.

1.41 x 1.41 = 1.9881
0.71 x 0.71 = 0.5041
