Question

The scale in a garden is 1cm = 7 m.Find the actual dimensions of the garden with length 4.5 cm and width 3cm

Answer 1

31.5m length

21m width

Explanation:

To find the actual dimensions of the garden, you can use the given scale of
`\(1\ \text{cm} = 7\ \text{m}\)`.

For the length:

`\[ \text{Actual Length} = \text{Length on scale} * \text{Scale factor} \]`

`\[ \text{Actual Length} = 4.5\ \text{cm} * 7\ \text{m/cm} \]`

`\[ \text{Actual Length} = 31.5\ \text{m} \]`

For the width:

`\[ \text{Actual Width} = \text{Width on scale} * \text{Scale factor} \]`

`\[ \text{Actual Width} = 3\ \text{cm} * 7\ \text{m/cm} \]`

`\[ \text{Actual Width} = 21\ \text{m} \]`

So, the actual dimensions of the garden are approximately 31.5 meters in length and 21 meters in width.
