Question

The blueprint of a rectangular house is 2.5 inches by 1.5 inches. If the scale is 1:120, what is the perimeter of the actual house in feet?

Answer 1

80 feet

Explanation:

Find L/W

2.5 x 120 = 300 in

1.5 x 120 = 180 in

Turn in-> ft

300/12 = 25 ft

180/12 = 15 ft

Add sides

25 + 25 + 15 + 15 = 80 ft
