Question

Jason is drawing the floor plan of his bedroom. He is drawing everything with dimensions that are 1/12 of the actual size. His bed measures 6 ft by 3 ft, and the room measures 14 ft by 16 ft. What are the dimensions of his bed and room in his drawing?

Answer 1

New bed dimension of bed 0.5 ft, 0.25 ft

New bed dimension of room 1.16 ft, 1.33 ft

Explanation:

Given data:

bed dimension is given as 6 ft by 3 ft

room dimension is given as 14 ft 16 ft

according to the given information , new dimension of the room and bed will be 1/12 times of actual dimension. therefore we have

New bed dimension of bed
`= (1)/(12) * 6 ft, (1)/(12) * 3 ft`

= 0.5 ft, 0.25 ft

New bed dimension of room
`= (1)/(12) * 14 ft, (1)/(12) * 16 ft`

= 1.16 ft, 1.33 ft
