A blueprint for a cottage has a scale of 1:40
One room measures 3.4m by 4.8m.
Calculate the dimensions of the room on the blueprint.
Hello parpar!
\(w:3.4m=1:40\\ 40w=3.4m\)
\(w=\frac{3.4m}{40}\cdot \frac{100cm}{m}\)
\(w=8.5cm\) on the blueprint
\(l=\frac{4.8m}{40}\cdot \frac{100cm}{m}\)
\(l=12cm\) on the blueprint
