The following program looks "correct" when my Windows display scaling is 
set to 100%, and looks "wrong" when set to anything higher than 100%. By 
"correct" I mean that the 4 squares meet in the center of the canvas, 
stretched to the maximum size possible that the canvas width and height 
will allow.

What is interesting is that I can make the program look correct by 
immediately scaling the values returned from `get-scaled-client-size`. For 
example, if my display is set to 150%, I can make the program look correct 
by immediately multiplying the returned width and height by 2/3, because 
100% is 2/3 of 150%. But right now I have to hard-code the 2/3 factor. Is 
there a way to get that 2/3 factor programmatically in Racket? Or (even 
better), is there something else I should be calling instead of 
`get-scaled-client-size` that would return the dimensions I want?

This is Racket CS 8.0.0.11 on Windows. Let me know if you want screenshots. 
Thanks in advance.
