Consider a trivial example: the image size is reduced exactly by half.
So, the cartesian coordinate (x, y) in the original image becomes coordinate (x/2, y/2) in the reduced image, and coordinate (x', y') in the reduced image corresponds to coordinate (x2, y2) in the original image.
Of course, fractional coordinates get typically rounded off, in a reduced scale image, so the exact mapping is only possible for even-numbered coordinates in this example's original image.
Generalizing this, if the image's width is scaled by a factor of w horizontally and h vertically, coordinate (x, y) becomes coordinate(xw, yh), rounded off. In the example I gave, both w and h are 1/2, or .5
You should be able to figure out the values of w and h yourself, and be able to map the coordinates trivially. Of course, due to rounding off, you will not be able to compute the exact coordinates in the original image.
