Given :

A horticulturist is planting a garden that is 4 m x 20 m.

To Find :

Dimensions could she use to create a scale model to plan it.

Solution :

Ratio of dimensions is :


R=(20)/(4)\\\\R=5

Now , options with same ratio will be useful to make scale diagram :

a) 4/1 = 4

b) 200/40 = 5

c) 5/1 = 5

d) 4/2 = 2

Therefore, options b) and c) are useful to make scale diagram.

Hence, this is the required solution.
