The scale of the drawing is 1 actual inch equals 12 drawing feet. The actual dimensions for the master bedroom in the two-bedroom apartment are 9 feet by 12 feet.

Great job on determining the scale of the drawing using the inch ruler. Based on your measurements:

a) The scale is One actual inch equals 12 drawing feet.

b) Now, to write the actual dimensions for each room alongside the scale drawing, you can use the scale factor of 1 inch = 12 feet. If the master bedroom is 9 feet by 12 feet:

  • The master bedroom's actual dimensions would be 9 feet x 12 feet.
  • On the scale drawing, it would be represented as 0.75 inches x 1 inch (since 1 inch on the drawing corresponds to 12 feet in reality).

So, for the two-bedroom apartment, you would write the actual dimensions alongside the scale drawing as follows:

  • Master Bedroom:
  • Actual dimensions: 9 feet x 12 feet
  • Scale drawing: 0.75 inches x 1 inch

Okay, here we have this:

Considering the provided measures, we are going to identify the scale of the drawing so we obtain the following:

Measuring with the inch ruler, we have:

The space that they say measures 9 feet in inches measures you 0.75, and the one that measures 12 feet in inches measures one inch.

a) Then the scale is: One actual inch equals 12 drawing feet.

b) The student put them on his own and they were verified
