The iving room in their house has a with of 16 feet and dr lenati or 20 reet: What will be the width and length of the living room in the doll house in feet if he uses a scale factor of 1/8

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the dimensions of the living room in the dollhouse, we need to scale down the dimensions of the actual living room by a factor of 1/8.

Width of living room in dollhouse = (Width of living room in actual house) x (scale factor)

= 16 feet x (1/8) = 2 feet

Length of living room in dollhouse = (Length of living room in actual house) x (scale factor)

= 20 feet x (1/8) = 2.5 feet

Therefore, the width of the living room in the dollhouse will be 2 feet and the length will be 2.5 feet.
