Question

Amelia measured the elementary school and made a scale drawing. The scale of the drawing was 11 millimeters : 4 meters. If the schoolyard is 484 millimeters long in the drawing, how long is the actual schoolyard?

Answer 1

176 meters
Ex: In the drawing 484 millimeters so 44x11 millimeters: 176

Answer 2

Answer: 176m

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to convert the meters in the scale to millimeters

4m = 4*1000mm

Now we got the scale 11:4000

11x = 4000 * 484
x= (4000*484)/11
x = 4000 * 44
x = 176000mm = 176m
