Question

Jacob makes a scale drawing for a crate with a scale factor of 1:20 the dimitions of his scale drawing is 3 in long and 2 in wide the bulder creates a scale drawing of the crate with the scale factor of 1:10. What are the dimitions of the builders drawing?

Answer 1

6 in long ; 4 in wide

Explanation:

With a scale of 1:20

Scaled drawing is 3 in long ; 2 in wide

Actual dimension :

Length = 20 * 3 = 60 in

Width = 20 * 2 = 40 in

Hence, to make a scaled drawing using 1 :10

Dimension :

Length = (1/10) * 60 = 6 inches

Width = (1/10) * 40 = 4 inches
