Answer:

Based on the information given, the scale

that's used by Harry for drawing the schoolyard will be 1:7000.

Firstly, it should be noted that

meter = 1000 milliliters

Therefore, 154 meters = 154,000

millimeters

Since the schoolyard is 154 meters long in real life but is 22 millimeters long in the

drawing, then the scale will be:

= 22/154000

= 1/7000
