Question

Bridget measured a restaurant and made a scale drawing. The restaurant’s kitchen is 6 millimeters long in the drawing. The actual kitchen is 10 meters long. What scale factor does the drawing use?

Answer 1

1 meter =1,000 millimeters. So, the scale is:

7 mm:1,000 mm Divide both sides by 7

1 mm:142 6/7 mm - This is the scale that Tess used.
