#1

Scale ratio

  • 10ft/1in

#2

Unknown is actual length

So the ratio is

  • x/0.75

#3

The proportion is

  • x/0.75=10/1

#4

Must be multiplied with 0.75

#5

  • x=0.75(10)
  • x=7.5ft

Actual length is 7.5ft

Answer:

Question 1

Given scale: 1 in = 10 ft


\textsf{Therefore, the scale as a ratio}=\sf \frac{\boxed{10}\:ft}{\boxed{1}\:in}

Question 2

The ratio of the garden's actual length to its length in the drawing:


\sf (x\:ft)/(0.75\:in)

Question 3

Therefore, the proportion is:


\sf (10\:ft)/(1\:in)=(x\:ft)/(0.75\:in)

Question 4

Multiply both sides of the proportion by 0.75 to find x

Question 5


\begin{aligned}\textsf{Proportion}: \quad \quad \;\sf (10\:ft)/(1\:in) & = \sf (x\:ft)/(0.75\:in)\\\\\textsf{Mulitply both sides by 0.75}: \quad \sf 0.75\cdot (10)/(1) & = \sf 0.75 \cdot (x)/(0.75)\\\\\textsf{Simplify}: \quad \quad \quad \sf 7.5 & = \sf x\end{aligned}

Therefore, the actual length of the garden is 7.5 ft
