Ayana drew a scale drawing of a house and its lot. The backyard, which is 70 feet long in real life, is 203 inches long in the drawing. What scale did Ayana use for the drawing?29 inches : [ ] feet

Respuesta :

Let m be scale used by individual for drawing.

Then the product of scale factor and original length is equal to the length in drawing. So,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 70\times m=203 \\ m=\frac{203}{70} \\ =\frac{29}{10} \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, 29 inches of drawing is corresponding to 10 feet of house.
