Using Fit to Fill to place a 2-second clip into a 4-second gap results in the clip playing back at what speed?

• A. 50%
• B. 25%
• C. 100%
• D. 200%

Answer: (A)

Fit to Fill works by changing how fast a clip plays so its duration matches the target span on the timeline. Here the clip is 2 seconds long, but the gap you want to fill is 4 seconds. To cover all four seconds, the clip must run longer than its original length, so you slow it down to half speed. At 50% of normal speed, the 2 seconds of footage stretches to 4 seconds on the timeline, perfectly filling the gap. The other options would either keep the clip at normal speed and leave part of the gap empty, or speed it up so it would finish before the gap ends.
