A scale drawing of Joshua's living room is shown below:

A rectangle is shown. The length of the rectangle is labeled as length equal to 6 cm, and the width is labeled as width equal to 4 cm.

If each 2 cm on the scale drawing equals 4 feet, what are the actual dimensions of the room?

Length = 12 feet, width = 8 feet
Length = 8 feet, width = 6 feet
Length = 24 feet, width = 16 feet

Respuesta :

To find the answer, first lets divide the width and length by the scale amount given, 2 cm.

Width: 4 cm / 2 cm = 2

Length: 6 cm / 2 cm = 3


After this, we multiply the result by the amount to scale up, in this case 4 feet.

Width: 2 * 4 = 8 feet


Length: 3 * 4 = 12 feet

Therefore the answer is the first option.
