The dimensions of a room measure 12ft by 9ft. In a scale drawing of a room, 1 inch= 3ft. What are the dimensions of the room in the drawing?

Hello!

You divide the unit rate by the dimensions of the room

12 / 3 = 4 inches
9 / 3 = 3 inches

The dimensions of the drawing is 4in by 3in

Hope this helps!
