Respuesta :

You would have to multiply 2 feet by 10 to get 20 feet, so multiply 1/4 by 10 to get 5/2 inches. The length of a 20 ft. room on a blueprint would be 5/2 or 2.5 inches.

Answer: Option 'd' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

In the scale used on a blueprint,

[tex]\dfrac{1}{4}\ inch=2\ feet[/tex]

Length of a room = 20 feet

We need to find the  Length of room in a blue print.

We will use "Unitary method":

[tex]2\ feet=\dfrac{1}{4}\ inch[/tex]

[tex]1\ feet=\dfrac{1}{8}\ inch[/tex]

So,  [tex]20\ feet=\dfrac{1}{8}\times 20=2.5\ inches[/tex]

Hence, Option 'd' is correct.
