Question

using a scale factor of 1 inch = 5 feet, what are the blueprint dimensions of a bedroom that is 12 feet x 18 feet ?

Answer 1

1in = 5ft

12/5 = 2.4

18/5 = 3.6

Using a scale factor of 1 inch = 5 feet, the blueprint dimensions of a bedroom that is 12 feet x 18 feet are 2.4in x 3.6in.

Answer 2

2.4 inches x 3.6 inches.

Explanation:

To find the answer we have to transform from feet to inches using the rule of three.

If 1 inches equals 5 feet, 12 feet how much inches would be

`12ft(1in)/(5ft)=2.4in`

And 18 feet?

`18ft(1in)/(5ft)=3.6in`

Therefore, the dimensions in inches is 2.4 inches x 3.6 inches.
