Question

A diagram of a swimming pool is below. The width of the pool is 25m find the length of the actual pool

Answer 1

The question has missing diagram, diagram is in the attachment.

Answer:

The length of the actual swimming pool is 50 m.

Explanation:

Given in the diagram;

Width = 7.5 cm

Length = 15 cm

Actual width of the pool = 25 m

we have to find the actual length of the swimming pool.

Solution,

Firstly we will find out the scale of the swimming pool.

since, the actual width = 25 m

width in the diagram = 7.5 cm

That means,

`7.5\ cm =25\ m\\\\\therefore 1\ cm=(25\ m)/(7.5)=3.33\ m`

So the scale is
`1\ cm=3.33\ m`

Now the length in the diagram = 15 cm

Then the actual is calculated by multiplying 15 cm to 3.33 m.

The actual length =
`15*3.33=50\ m`

Hence The length of the actual swimming pool is 50 m.
