Question

A town is designing a rectangular park that will be 600 feet by 1000 feet. A rectangular area of the park for swing sets will be 25 feet by 100 feet. On a scale drawing of the park, the swing set area is 0.5 inch by 2 inches.

What are the dimensions of the park on the scale drawing

Answer 1

Answer:It is 12 inches by 20

Answer 2

since 25 feet = 1/2 an inch, we know that an inch = 50 feet. 600/50 = 12 and 1000/50 = 20 so the whole park is 12x20 inches on the scale drawing.
